Accelerating High-Impact
Palliative Care Education
Since 2016, the Lien Centre for Palliative Care (LCPC) has fostered innovation in palliative care education through its Education Incubator. The Incubator provides seed funding for innovative educational initiatives and small-scale educational research, enabling healthcare professionals and educators to develop, pilot, evaluate, and refine new ideas that address emerging learning needs. By supporting early-stage innovation and educational scholarship, LCPC encourages a culture of collaboration, experimentation, and continuous improvement.
What the Education Incubator Offers
The Incubator supports educational initiatives through:
- Direct funding
- Subject matter and pedagogical expertise
All programmes benefit from oversight by expertise from LCPC and faculty from Duke-NUS, SingHealth, and local and international palliative care experts. This ensures high-quality, sustainable education that enhances service delivery across Singapore.
