8th Annual Dust and Respiratory Health Forum

We are thrilled to announce that in 2025, the Dust and Respiratory Health Forum is moving from The University of Queensland campus to the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre.

Date: 30 October 2025

The Forum brings together experts from around the world to showcase advancements and emerging trends in the management of dust and mine dust lung diseases. It aims to fosters collaborations and the sharing of best practice to improve the health, safety and treatment options outcomes for mine workers affected by occupational dust lung diseases. 

Dust lung diseases can lead to long-term health problems, and they continue to be a significant risk for mine workers around the world. Worryingly, there is still no holistic picture of the overall risk of these diseases or the risk factors in development and progression, which makes the Forum  an important opportunity to share knowledge and experience.

The Dust and Respiratory Health Forum is organised by the Minerals Industry Safety and Health Centre (MISHC), part of UQ's Sustainable Minerals Institute and sponsored by  BreatheSafe and Sy-Klone.

Thanks to the support of our sponsors we are able to keep the Forum free to attend, ensuring we bring the right people together to drive meaningful change.
