The International Conference on Men's Issues (ICMI) are a series of conferences organised by MRAs and held around the world to discuss issues facing men and boys. The inaugural conference was held in 2014, and since 2016 the conference has been held annually.
While the conferences are run by MRAs presenters are drawn from a wide pool and have included politicians and other public figures.
To date, all ICMI conferences have been held in the United States, United Kingdom or Australia. Conferences are scheduled to be held in Canada in 2022 and in India in 2023.
ICMI conferences are often met with hostility from feminists. This requires a gradual release of the particulars of the next conference. Information on the venue is often only released to conference attendees in the lead up to the conference and is only known publicly after the conference has concluded.
