The Global Initiative for Children’s Surgery (GICS) VI meeting is tentatively scheduled for May 15-17, 2026, in Bogotá, Colombia.

We will have more details to share in the coming weeks, but we are excited to gather with colleagues from around the world to advance surgical care for children in low-resource settings.

This will be a hybrid event, with sessions available both in person and online, ensuring broad accessibility and participation. Stay tuned for updates as we finalize plans for this important convening!
