This 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. It 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.
Programme
The IHEYO-UHASSO KAMPALA 2004 will focus on humanist education, leadership
training, peace and social justice. These and related topics will be addressed

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 IHEYO General
Assembly will be held.
