19th World Congress of Gynecology and Obstetrics – FIGO 2009
October 4 - 9, 2009, Cape Town, South Africa
The FIGO World Congress of Gynecology & Obstetrics is the only event on this scale that brings together specialists in obstetrics and gynecology from all parts of the world. The 2006 event attracted over 6,000 delegates from in excess of 120 countries and territories, and the organizers confidently expect that number to be exceeded in 2009.
Cape Town will play host to thousands of obstetricians and gynecologists, not only from FIGO’s 113 member societies but also delegates from a number of territories where a professional society of specialists has yet to become affiliated.
Quite apart from the educational and professional benefits of attending this landmark event, the Congress – which only takes place every three years – offers a tremendous opportunity to renew old acquaintances, experience the culture of a vibrant, emerging society and visit one of the favorites travel destinations on the planet.
The Congress will be an exciting and wide-ranging program designed to engage all delegates on topics of vital importance to women's health. The Congress program will include international experts sharing leading edge knowledge on innovation and technology, balanced by critically important insights into preventing tragedies in the lives and health of women. Beyond health professionals, the organizers expect this conference to include leaders from partnership organizations and to be of relevance to policy makers and others in decision-making roles.
