BNYCHFW 2026 represents an important evolution in the journey of Bangladesh’s leading youth-focused conference platform. Building on the legacy of the Bangladesh National Youth Conference on Family Planning (BNYCFP), the 2026 edition expands its scope to embrace a broader vision of health, well-being, and family welfare.
The Bangladesh 11th National Youth Conference on Health and Family Welfare (BNYCHFW 2026), taking place on October 13–14, 2026, in Dhaka. Under the theme “Create. Connect. Catalyze.”, the conference will advance youth leadership, cross-sectoral collaboration, and meaningful youth engagement across health and family welfare priorities, including mental health, family planning and SRHR, gender equality, nutrition and NCDs, digital health and safety, climate and health resilience, health governance, and localization of the SDGs.
Building on a legacy of national youth conferences since 2016, BNYCHFW 2026 is convened by SERAC-Bangladesh, in collaboration with the Directorate General of Family Planning, Directorate General of Health Services, and a broad network of health and development stakeholders. The conference is expected to bring together over 500 young leaders, alongside government representatives, civil society, development partners, experts, and international speakers.
