32nd International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) Virtual Triennial Congress is organized by International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) and will be held from Jun 02 - 30, 2021.

Description:
A Virtual Triennial Congress designed for you
The 32nd ICM Virtual Triennial Congress will be an informative and engaging opportunity for midwives from around the world to connect with each other and with international partners and exhibitors. We’re confident the collaborative, uplifting energy of our face-to-face Congresses will come with us into this virtual environment, through our Q&As with presenters, live chats with experts, interactive exhibitions and more!

The Virtual Congress will take place in two five-hour blocks every Wednesday in June (Thursdays for some time zones).

Most plenary and concurrent sessions will be streamed ‘live’, but some will be pre-recorded. All sessions will be recorded and available for viewing ‘on demand’. Delegates will have access to our online platform and programme for two months so will have the opportunity to see and engage in everything the congress has to offer!
