The International Physical Literacy Conference (IPLC) is designed to bring together health, education, sport and recreation experts and practitioners, and policy-makers from around the world to share research and best practices. A conference of this caliber is paramount as childhood obesity and rising inactivity among children threatens the future health of many nations around the world. For kids to be healthy and stay physically active, they need to feel confident, be motivated, and competent to use fundamental movement skills – physical literacy. They need to move! This conference brings together global thought leaders who are innovating real change.

The 2019 International Physical Literacy Conference will take place May 7-10 at the Fort Garry Hotel, in Winnipeg, MB, Canada.
