Last chance to save up to 20% on in-person Congress registration – 3 August deadline
 

The standard registration rate for Congress ends in one week. This is your chance to get the best rates for in-person participation.

Attending the Congress in person gives you the complete Congress experience, from direct exchanges with top conservation experts to high-level live and in-person debates and sessions. IUCN Congresses are opportunities for professional growth, networking and driving impact. While maintaining health and safety protocols throughout the venue, in-person participation will help you to broaden your network, get first-hand information and allow you to weigh in on the most pressing issues facing our planet.
REGISTER TODAY

The current standard registration rates range from EUR200 to EUR1050 for the complete Congress experience – with special prices for Members and participants living in France.

French President Emmanuel Macron called the IUCN World Conservation Congress in Marseille this September a “major milestone” in the fight for biodiversity. The Congress is the largest platform where government, civil society and indigenous peoples’ organisations will convene with experts from around the world to showcase the latest in conservation science, policy and best practice and to help move biodiversity ambition into action.
