The EC Jamboree

The EC Jamboree is ASEC's annual meeting, and the only conference dedicated entirely to emergency contraception. Each year, we bring together stakeholders from many fields, including healthcare, research, advocacy, student activism, industry, and community organizing around one goal: expanding access to emergency contraception.
The EC Jamboree began as a small meeting of advocates in the late 1990s working towards the initial Plan B approval. Since then, the meeting has grown and evolved to include new topics, partners, and traditions. In the spirit of meeting people where they are, the EC Jamboree is now a hybrid meeting so folks can attend with us in person, or from the comfort of home anywhere in the world.
