PAST - World Conservation Congress

The World Conservation Congress will take place from 3 to 11 September 2021 in Marseille, France with physical and virtual attendance options. https://www.iucncongress2020.org/

Held once every four years, but this time delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the IUCN World Conservation Congress brings together several thousand leaders and decision-makers from government, civil society, indigenous peoples, business, and academia, with the goal of conserving the environment and harnessing the solutions nature offers to global challenges.

The event has three main components: The Members’ Assembly, where IUCN Members vote on priority actions; the Forum, a global marketplace of conservation science and innovation; and the Exhibition, where exhibitors can showcase their work to Congress participants and the public.
