Your Moment on the ICFP LIVE Stage Starts Here.
Take the mic. Share your story. Shape the movement.










What is the ICFP LIVE Stage?
Launched at ICFP 2022, the LIVE Stage is a vibrant, interactive space at the heart of the conference—livestreamed globally and open to all. It elevates bold, community-powered voices in family planning and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).
In 2025, we’re taking it even further. Expect original content, fresh formats, and powerful new voices.
Who Can Submit?
We invite influential voices from around the world to host bold 10-minute segments on the ICFP 2025 LIVE Stage in Colombia.
This community-driven platform will amplify creative formats, unheard perspectives, and real stories of equity in action — broadcast live and accessible on demand to a global audience of over 50,000 people.
Whether you’re a youth leader, researcher, performer, advocate, or policymaker, your voice belongs here.
If you’ve got a 10-minute segment that sparks ideas, challenges norms, or showcases real solutions, we want to hear it.
Segments are welcome to be held in English, French, or Spanish.

Real stories and practical insights with potential to shift thinking and improve lives
What Can I Submit?
We accept proposals for short (10-minute) segments in formats including:
- Solo talks (TED Talk–style presentation)
- 1:1 conversations or interviews
- Performance or spoken word

A maximum of 4 people may be on stage per segment
What Topics Should Segments Cover?
The ICFP LIVE Stage is different from the ICFP 2025 scientific program and doesn’t have set tracks. Areas of focus may fit into these broad categories relating to SRHR experiences:
- Research – sharing findings, data, innovations, or methodologies
- Programs – highlighting implementation, services, or delivery models
- Advocacy – focused on movement-building, storytelling, or influencing change
- Creative Expression or Storytelling – using art, performance, or narrative formats
Think bold. Think equitable. Think impact!
