Welcome To IMIA2025

We are excited to welcome you to the premier gathering of medical professionals, researchers, and thought leaders in the field of addiction medicine.

The 2025 International Medicine in Addiction Conference brings together a community dedicated to advancing evidence-based practices, fostering collaboration, and addressing the challenges of addiction in all its forms.

Join us at the Sydney International Convention Centre (ICC) from August 29-31, 2025, this year’s conference will feature cutting-edge research, innovative treatment approaches, and dynamic discussions that will shape the future of addiction medicine. Whether you’re here to deepen your knowledge, share your expertise, or connect with fellow professionals, you will find a wealth of opportunities to learn and grow.

Join us as we explore the latest advancements in addiction medicine, from prevention to recovery, and everything in between. Together, we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals, families, and communities affected by addiction.

Acknowledgement of Country

We acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, the Traditional Custodians of this land where we meet today.

We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters, and community. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples present here today.

Let us reflect on the significance of this land and the rich heritage and deep connection that the Gadigal people have with it. We are committed to honouring the cultural practices and knowledge systems that have existed here for thousands of years.
