About IFEH World Congresses

The IFEH arranges World Congresses on Environmental Health:

IFEH World Congress on Environmental Health, biennially, since 1988

Since 2015 and until 2021 the IFEH also arranged
IFEH Academic World Conference on Envirornmental Health, biennially.


The Federation endorses and supports World Congresses on Environmental Health, which are hosted by member organisations, or, in some instances, by affiliates of member organizations.

Congresses are intended to promote education, exchange of ideas and experience, and facilitate personal contact.

World Congresses are structured to provide the broadest range of environmental health education and for many opportunities for individuals to interact.

Congress programs  have a local, as well as an international flavour, with a combination of local and international speakers and topics. Parallel sessions and workshops are to be part of the program, as well as technical tours.

IFEH Council meeting - IFEH Annual assembly - and meetings in IFEH Regional Groups  are facilitated in connection to a World Congress.

More information on the conduct of World Congresses can be found in the Procedures Manual
