IAPB calls for proposals to appoint 11GA’s PCO

The International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB), host, and the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists (RANZCO), local organising partner, are pleased to invite organisations to tender for the appointment as Professional Congress Organiser (PCO) for the IAPB's 11th General Assembly (11GA) to be held in Auckland, New Zealand in March 2020.

The General Assembly of IAPB brings together the key players from among eye care providers, International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs), UN bodies, representatives from civil society, corporations, and all those who share the vision of achieving a world without needless blindness.

A General Assembly is held once every four years. The Assembly provides a forum for people involved in the fight against blindness and visual impairment to share information and exchange ideas. It normally includes a 3-4 days of scientific lectures, panel discussions, symposia and courses; social events, including an opening and celebration ceremonies and gala dinner; and a trade exhibition for equipment manufacturers and NGOs to showcase products and projects.
