About the Conference

The World Conference, organised for the first time as a joint project between Deafblind International (DbI) and the World Federation of the Deafblind (WFDB), will take place from 19 to 23 July 2027 at the congress center in Davos, Switzerland.

The World Conference focuses on direct interaction and is therefore primarily an in-person event. Only the sessions in the plenary hall will be streamed. The main World Conference will be preceded by a joint Pre-Conference of the DbI Networks on July 18 and 19.
