The World Humanist Congress is a triennial international congress convened by Humanists International, the world union of humanist organisations. Each congress is hosted by a national member organisation of Humanists International in a different part of the world, in conjunction with the elected board of Humanists International. It is the largest event in the world specifically gathering humanists and humanist organisations, attracting more than 1,000 delegates from 60 countries.[1]
The most recent World Humanist Congress was held from 7–11 August 2014, in Oxford, England, in association with member organisation Humanists UK.[2] The 2017 was scheduled to be held in São Paulo, Brazil and hosted by the Secular Humanist League of Brazil (LiHS) but was cancelled due to visa restrictions created by the Trump travel ban that year.[3] The following Congress in Miami, United States, in association with the American Humanist Association[4] also had to be cancelled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
