The International Federation of Infection Control (IFIC) welcomes you to the IFIC 2020 Conference.

Our Twentieth International Conference will be a stimulating event, and is planned for March 2020, in beautiful Belgrade, Serbia. The conference will provide up to date infection prevention and control topics, a mix of plenary and concurrent sessions, and presentations from international experts, with some sessions offered by our member societies. IFIC will continue to include opportunities for attending workshops, with topics presented in a comprehensive, participative format, allowing for open discussion and exploration of issues, and the practical application of in-depth material. With this mix of detailed, contemporary content, along with traditional sessions of cutting edge infection prevention and control content, we have planned a conference that will be of interest to anyone in our professional field.

Belgrade, capital city of Serbia is a perfect location for the IFIC annual conference. Built on the confluence of the Danube and Sava rivers it has a rich history and a varied architectural and cultural heritage. It is also an upcoming tourist attraction, with notable and beautiful landmarks, great gastronomy and a rich nightlife.

On behalf of IFIC and the local organizing committee, we look forward to welcoming you to the Twentieth Congress of the International Federation of Infection Control in Belgrade!
