Women Deliver 2026
It’s time to register to attend the Women Deliver 2026 Conference!
Women Deliver is one of the largest gender equality conferences in the world. It will be held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre in Narrm (Melbourne) from 27 to 30 April 2026.
We will welcome 6,500 gender equality advocates from around 170 countries. The conference will provide a space for important conversations, to break barriers and address gender equality challenges experienced by women, girls and gender diverse people from around the world. The conference will create opportunities to come together and advance gender equality and sexual and reproductive health and rights.
This global event will bring together advocates, and leaders to drive progress on issues that matter most to women and girls.
It will include key issues such as:
- climate justice
- First Nations treaty and truth telling
- economic empowerment
- ending gender-based violence.
Hosting WD2026 in Melbourne will showcase our region’s work to advance gender equality. It will also provide opportunities to strengthen and form new national and regional partnerships.
This will be the first time the conference has been held in the Oceanic Pacific region.
Melbourne was selected to host WD2026 following Victoria’s success as regional convening partner for the most recent conference in 2023. The Victorian Government hosted regional convenings in Fiji and Melbourne as part of this process.
The regional convenings led to a large delegation from the Oceanic Pacific region travelling to WD2023, in Kigali, Rwanda, in July 2023.
