世界环境史大会是环境史组织者联盟主办的一次国际性会议，每五年举办一次。第一届大会于2009年8月4-8日在丹麦哥本哈根举办。第二届大会于2014年6月8-12日在葡萄牙举办。

One of ICEHO’s chief activities is to organize a World Congress of Environmental History (WCEH) every 5 years.

ICEHO was a co-sponsor of the 1st World Congress of Environmental History held in Copenhagen, Denmark, August 4-8, 2009 which brought together more than 500 scholars from all over the globe, giving them a unique opportunity of to learn from each other and to create an overarching picture of the relationship of people and the environment through time. Interactions are found on many scales, from the local to the global. Resource issues cross national boundaries and ecosystem boundaries. Looking at our challenges from multiple perspectives, multiple spatial and temporal scales, and varied politics, economies and disciplines is the only way to enlighten the complex challenge of creating a sustainable future. A recap of the Congress was posted on theFHS blog Aug. 21, 2009.

The 2nd World Congress of Environmental History will take place July 8-12, 2014. This will be hosted in the cultural capital of Europe 2012, the beautiful northern Portuguese town of Guimarães. The conference is co-sponsored by the University of Minho and the International School Congress/International Workshop on Environmental History group (ISC/IWEH). The theme of the Congress, ‘Environmental History in the Making’, aims to create synergy among all scholars engaged in environmental history, to fathom the reach of the field and to investigate its focus areas and theoretical underpinnings.
