This September, the IADMS 36th Annual Conference will be held at the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA), a part of the University of Melbourne’s Faculty of Fine Arts and Music. This four-day event brings together a global community of professionals committed to advancing dance medicine and science. IADMS Members and Non-Members welcome to attend.
VCA is generously providing access to its world-class facilities and is delighted to welcome IADMS attendees to its campus. Their support allows the conference to be held within an inspiring artistic setting in the heart of Melbourne’s creative district.
Participants will engage with a dynamic program held across lecture halls, studios, theatres, and collaborative spaces - each designed to foster learning, discussion, movement, and interdisciplinary exchange. IADMS looks forward to welcoming its international community to Melbourne for four days of connection, knowledge-sharing, and advancement of the field.
The International Association for Dance Medicine and Science’s 36th Annual Conference will take place in Southbank, Naarm/Melbourne, on the unceded lands of the Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin Nation.
We respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of these lands and recognise the significant and enduring contributions of Australia’s First Peoples. We honour their continuing connection to Country, culture, community, and knowledge, and are committed to supporting the continuity of culture and the ongoing relationship between people and Country.
