Conference Info
The Babywearing world has changed drastically since the first International Babywearing Conference in 2006. The community of wearers is larger and more global. The growth of Facebook and other social media platforms have changed how we communicate. Local babywearing groups, many under the umbrella of Babywearing International, have blossomed. IBC is growing and changing to keep pace: for the first time, International Babywearing Conference will offer registration interest groups and breakout session tracks in 2016. Each interest group will have a suggested set of breakout sessions, although you will be free to select the sessions that appeal most, regardless of track.
IBC 2016 will start on Thursday, around lunch time, and conclude Sunday around 1 pm at the end of the Keynote. Specific interest groups may have pre-conference events available as well, so please read thoroughly before booking travel. Events are generally scheduled between 9 am and 5:30 pm, although there are some early evening events planned. Meals are not included in the registration price.
