International Scientific Conference Civilization Diseases – Causes, Treatment and Prevention on June 01, 2023 in Lublin, Poland

Recent decades, in addition to the enormous progress of science and technology, have also brought a number of threats caused by changes in the lifestyles of societies, namely reduced physical activity, unhealthy nutrition, environmental pollution, increasing stress and isolation. Clearly, it can lead to cardiovascular diseases, cancer, or diabetes among others. It is noticeable that the group of people suffering from these diseases keeps expanding, as it includes not only the elderly, but also, more and more, younger people, and even children. Furthermore, the symptoms of civilization diseases affect not only bodies but also minds.

During the conference we will try to address queries such as: 

• What is our impact on the development of civilization diseases, and how can we protect ourselves against them? 
• How to diagnose to accurately determine a disease and apply effective treatment? 
• And finally, what preventive measures should be taken to avoid civilization diseases?

Therefore, in the course of the symposium we will approach the topic in a multi-complex way and shall consider the issues related to the causes, effects, consequences and solutions to civilization diseases.

Our aim is to integrate the scientific community and create a forum for discussion for people representing various fields of science, such as medicine and health sciences, psychology, pedagogy, economics, law and ecology. Those who are passionate about the subjects of health and diseases are also welcome. Considering that civilization and social diseases affect every sphere of people’s lives, we strive to create a discussion panel aimed at exchanging knowledge, which could result in a joint fight against 21st century diseases.
