How to Join the 6th World Sepsis Congress on April 22 and 23, 2026

The 6th World Sepsis Congress is almost here, taking place live, free of charge, and fully online on April 22 and 23, 2026.

We are starting with the Opening Session (embedded above) on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at 14:00h Central European Summer Time. From then on, a new session will start every 90 minutes – review the full program here.

This year, we are making the Congress even more accessible than ever by streaming to YouTube directly – that means you can join via the Congress website (here), via the YouTube website (here), or via the YouTube app on your phone or tablet – just search for World Sepsis Congress on YouTube.

Over two days, 90 leading experts, frontline clinicians, researchers, policymakers, sepsis survivors, and advocates from around the world will share state-of-the-art knowledge, evidence, innovations, and lived experiences. Together, we will examine what works: from community-based prevention to hospital-based critical care, and where critical gaps remain. We will highlight scalable solutions, explore the role of digital health and artificial intelligence, and forge practical pathways to reduce preventable deaths among newborns, children, and women.

Additionally, the congress will feature two panel discussions, one featuring the voices of women, children, and families, and another focusing on emergency, critical, and operative care (ECO) pathways in mother-child settings.
