Correlation is known as a network, which brings together people and different stakeholders – such as service providers, service users, researchers and policy makers – with the aim to break down barriers and to create new and innovative ways of cooperation and approaches.

The conference is built on this principle. The programme includes high level policy plenary and major discussions as well as abstract driven sessions and skill building workshops. In addition there will be the opportunity to exchange knowledge and information in a more informal way during the 'Dialogue Market', in which participating organisations can present their work and exchange information with other participants. The main language of the conference is English. Specific satellite sessions in Slovenian are planned.

The conference will focus on methodology and strategies, which improve the health and social situation of vulnerable groups – such as drug user, sex worker, young people at risk, migrants and MSM.
