Building Bridges North–South: Strengthening Global Solidarity for SRHR, Maternal Health, and Sustainable Development

ICGE-2027 is a global cooperation space dedicated to strengthening bridges between North–South, regions, institutions, and generations in shaping sustainable solutions for present and future generations.

ICGE-2027 convenes global leaders, researchers, policymakers, healthcare professionals, development partners, civil society organizations, and emerging voices from across continents to collectively shape the future of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR), maternal health, and sustainable development.

Hosted in Uppsala, Sweden—a city globally recognized for academic excellence, research, innovation, and international cooperation, the conference provides a unique platform for knowledge exchange, strategic partnerships, and collaborative action on shared global challenges and opportunities.

Over three days, the conference will facilitate evidence-informed dialogue, knowledge exchange, and strategic partnership-building across sectors and regions, fostering collaborative action to address some of the most pressing challenges and emerging priorities in SRHR, maternal health, and sustainable development.

Aligned with Agenda 2030 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the conference advances evidence-informed policy dialogue, promotes cross-regional partnerships, and supports innovative approaches to healthcare systems, maternal wellbeing, and sustainable development, contributing to a more resilient, equitable, and inclusive future.
