The World Humanist Congress is an international congress held every three years on behalf of the International Humanist and Ethical Union (IHEU). Each congress is held in a different part of the world and is organised by a host member organisation in conjunction with the IHEU executive committee. The most recent congress was held on August 7–11, 2014, in Oxford, England, in association with member organization the British Humanist Association (BHA). The next congress will be held in 2017 in São Paulo, Brazil, in association with member organization the Secular Humanist League of Brazil (LiHS). ==Purpose== IHEU Congresses aim at: * Bringing together members of IHEU’s Member Organisations and individual supporters to discuss matters of concern, to learn and to draw inspiration from each other. * Focusing global humanist attention on selected issues, so that an IHEU position on the issue can be formulated. * Showcasing the role and aims of IHEU, promoting knowledge and understanding of IHEU among other NGOs in the region. * Creating increased visibility for IHEU and humanism in the media – thereby achieving a generally raised profile for Humanism and humanist concerns in the region. * Helping build a network of international contacts among Congress participants. * Creating opportunities for IHEU-kindred organisations to participate in our activities and meetings, on a reciprocal basis. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「World Humanist Congress」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
