Join us on 25 October 2026 for IF’s annual World Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Day Online Conference.

Each year, this online event brings together persons with Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus, member organisations, healthcare professionals, researchers, and advocates from around the world to mark World SBH Day and explore the year’s campaign theme. In 2026, the event will focus on “A Lifetime of Experiences: From Preconception to Aging”, highlighting the diverse experiences of the SBH community across all stages of life.

Further details, including speakers and registration information, will be announced soon through the IF and WSBHD websites and social media channels.
