When: 27 to 29 June 2022 
Where: Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona, Spain.

Each day of the conference begins with a plenary presentation by an invited speaker from centres of excellence including:

Between them these experts will cover a range of fascinating topics such as vector control in the urban environment, relationships between vector-borne disease and climate change, and the evolution of pests within the urban environment.

These keynote speakers are detailed on the ICUP website.

After each plenary session there are several parallel sessions with speakers from around the world.

These deal with specific topics such as mosquitoes, termites, bed bugs, ants, cockroaches, rodents and birds and cover both chemical and non-chemical control.

In addition, there is a poster session and a range of workshops where delegates have the opportunity to discuss particular topics in more detail.

The 2022 organising team, chaired by Dr Rubén Bueno from Laboratorios Lokímica explains: "The team has worked hard pulling together what promises to be another stimulating and productive event.

"In total, the programme comprises around 70 oral presentations and 50 posters which will appeal to all involved in urban pests and their management."

Throughout the conference, the breaks allow delegates time to mix and engage in informal discussion, culminating in the conference dinner on the last evening. A trademark of all ICUP events is that printed proceedings will be available for all delegates at the event.
