Siriraj Hospital to host KIDS FORUM 2026 for child health

The Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, in collaboration with the Royal College of Pediatricians of Thailand and the Thai Health Promotion Foundation (ThaiHealth), has announced the “KIDS FORUM 2026: Facts & Solutions in Children’s Health.” The event is scheduled for October 10–11, 2026, at the Central Court, 1st Floor, CentralWorld.

The forum aims to address the issue of information overload in the digital age by providing families with reliable, evidence-based medical information. The initiative focuses on four key goals: improving access to trustworthy health data, increasing confidence in child care, promoting digital health literacy, and creating a continuous public learning space.

The two-day program is structured into two main themes. The first day, “Early Years, Strong Foundations,” covers topics such as brain development (EF), 21st-century skills, the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in child care, nutrition, and genetics. The second day, “Growing Years, Strong Connections,” focuses on school-aged children and adolescents, addressing family relationships, gaming addiction, e-cigarettes, bullying prevention, and adolescent mental health.
