Introducing Sharjah…

Sharjah, U.A.E., is an international cultural hub known for its rich heritage, stunning architecture, and diverse experiences—whether it’s a dune bash through the Arabian desert, a visit to a vibrant souk, a relaxing day at the beach, or a trip to nearby Dubai.

The city has excellent infrastructure, and a growing reputation for hosting international events, which make it an incredible destination for our movement to gather.

We Are Inclusion

We have heard from many of you and know that we are eager to come together to meet again in-person.

This year’s World Congress theme, We Are Inclusion, captures that spirit of togetherness and spotlights the work of our global network.

Together, we’ll share and learn how to collectively work towards inclusion and a world where everyone belongs.

We look forward to seeing you in Sharjah in 2025. Stay tuned for more details on registration and programme highlights as we continue our planning.

We can’t wait to welcome you there!
