EVENTS
The International Environment Forum organizes an annual conference somewhere in the world, contributes to events organized by its partners, and participates in conferences and forums organized by the United Nations and other organizations. Many of these are reported on the home page, and the annual conference reports have their own page. Some continuing activities are also described in more detail in the Activities part of the web site.
The Wilmette Institute organizes on-line learning courses every year on Sustainable Development and Human Prosperity, on Climate Change, and on Bahá’í Perspectives on Agriculture and Food, with IEF members as faculty.
IEF WEBINAR SERIES
The IEF is presenting a monthly online webinar series on topics of current interest. As a Bahá'í-inspired professional organisation, the IEF works for responsible environmental management and sustainability through both science and values, demonstrating the complementarity of science and religion. It is open to all viewpoints and all faith traditions to encourage dialogue and increase understanding of the complex human and natural system that is life on this planet. IEF webinars are organised in this spirit.
The IEF has been organizing this online webinar series approximately monthly since late 2020. Future lectures or discussions, and those that are recorded, are documented on the Lectures page. Future lectures are also announced here.
The May 2022 webinar will be replaced by the IEF Annual Conference 1-5 June 2022
