IFCO: Empowering family-based care for every child around the world.

IFCO Conference 2022

The IFCO Conference 2022 will be held from September 23rd – 25th this year in Darwin, Australia. It is a particularly special one as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the International Foster Care Organisation and the 10th anniversary of Foster and Kinship Carers Association NT Incorporated! The aim of this year’s Conference is to create a platform for all stakeholders to share and understand their role and responsibilities in supporting children in care and care leavers. 

The Conference content will be a combination of interesting plenaries and interactive workshops that which have a focus on engagement and connection for children and youth. We also envision a complimenting dynamic social program and other networking opportunities.

Our early bird rates end on May 31st, so be sure to book your tickets quickly!
