A total of over 100 speakers from over 40 countries will participate in CIMA2015: Mountaineering Challenges for the XXI Century, to be held in Zaragoza between 26 and 28 March 2015.

The overall objective of the Congress is to be a meeting place for mountaineers, researchers, professionals, businesses, administrations, mountain people and all those who are willing to reflect on, research, share experiences and discuss mountaineering challenges in the 21st century.

The UIAA - International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation is a co-organiser of the conference - along with FEDME and FAM - and invites all member federations to attend the Congress.

The programme includes keynote speeches, lectures, roundtables, oral communications, poster presentations, commercial stands, workshops, product launches and exhibitions.

Meeting topics have been organised under five thematic areas intended to cover all sporting and non-sporting aspects that make mountaineering "more than a sport”:

·         Mountaineering and Sport

·         Mountaineering and Society

·         Mountaineering and Environment

·         Mountaineering and Economic Development

·         Mountaineering:  Security and Health.

The official languages of this event are Spanish and English.
