Overview
2030 IN SIGHT LIVE is the only conference dedicated solely to uniting individuals in finding solutions to one of the world’s most critical challenges: ensuring that eye health is accessible to everyone by 2030. As International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB)’s flagship global event, 2030 IN SIGHT LIVE gathers leaders, innovators, and changemakers to collaborate, discuss, and take decisive action on the 2030 In Sight Strategy.
The event will unite global leaders in eye health and development stakeholders under the shared purpose of shaping action for impact. Together we will confirm key policy frameworks and activate action to shape political, country, and institutional engagement, essential for ensuring the success of 2030 In Sight Strategy.
