HRP and WHO at the International Confederation of Midwives Congress

14 – 18 June 2026
Lisbon, Portugal

The ICM Triennial Congress is the largest global gathering of midwives, presenting a valuable opportunity to share knowledge, discuss pressing issues and shape the future of sexual, reproductive, maternal, newborn and adolescent health.

The World Health Organization (WHO) and HRP (the UNDP/UNFPA/UNICEF/WHO/World Bank Special Programme of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction) have a programme of events that span the launch of new postpartum haemorrhage research, workshops to strengthen partnership between midwives and obstetrician-gynecologists, work on endometriosis and menstrual health and the role of midwives in the prevention of female genital mutilation.

We hope to see you there.
