IHEYO International Humanist Youth Conference 2004,
Kampala, Uganda 20-24 May
IHEYO is pleased to announce its 2004 international humanist youth
conference: Global Humanism for Peace and Social Justice being co-hosted
with the Ugandan Humanist Association (UHASSO). The conference will take
place between the 20th and 24th of May in Kampala, Uganda.
The conference is a follow up to the earlier conferences held in the
Netherlands (2002) and in Germany (2003). It is the first of its kind in
Africa since the commencement of global youth humanism in the 1960s. The
conference promises to be exciting, educating, fun-filled and memorable
as the previous ones in Europe!!
IHEYO-UHASSO KAMPALA 2004 will bring together between 70-100 youth from
all around the world. The conference is for young persons between 15 and
35 years, especially humanists and Human Right activists.
About the Conference programme
The conference will focus on humanist education, leadership training,
peace and social justice. These and related topics will be addressed in
workshops and keynote speeches, in training and discussions on concrete
projects. And there will be social and cultural activities, a peace
rally and visits to local projects. At the last day on 24 of May, the
second IHEYO General Assembly will be held.
