Thank you for your interest in attending The Women Deliver 2019 Conference in Vancouver, Canada. We are currently at capacity and have closed registration.
We currently have more than 1,500 names on our waitlist and everyone on the waitlist will be notified of the status of their registration request no later than May 15. At this time, there is no other avenue to register to be on-site in Vancouver and due to the volume of interest we will not be able to respond to emails or phone calls related to the waitlist.
However, on-site attendance is not the only way to participate in the Women Deliver 2019 Conference. We urge you to register for WDLive, our Virtual Conference. We will be streaming a robust 4-day program exclusively for our online audience to enjoy and interact with, both on WD2019.org and Facebook. Additionally, consider hosting a Satellite Event to join the global dialogue – we have a toolkit to get your started. And of course, we welcome you to join the conversation on social media using #WD2019.

Vancouver, Canada -
The Women Deliver 2019 conference will be hosted in the award-winning Vancouver Convention Centre, a LEED® Platinum certified, state-of-the-art facility on the waterfront in beautiful downtown Vancouver. A vibrant city, Vancouver is located on Canada’s west coast and is an ideal location to host an international event.
In addition to having the technical capacity to host a conference of this size, Canada is one of the countries in the world that consistently prioritizes and invests in girls and women. These shared values make Canada an especially appropriate choice for the Women Deliver 2019 Conference.
Our government is committed to making the changes necessary to
give women and men equal footing in our society, here in B.C.– Honourable John Horgan, Premier of British Columbia
