Panel consisted of Andrew Copson (main speaker), Rein Zunderdorp, Roar Johnsen, Ane-France Ketelaer, Susan Sackett, Ron Solomon, Carl Blackburn, and Bob Churchill.

Founded in Amsterdam in 1952, the IHEU vision is a Humanist world; a world in which human rights are respected and everyone is able to live a life of dignity. IHEU works to build and represent the global Humanist movement that defends human rights and promotes Humanist values world-wide. Headquartered in London, IHEU is an international non-governmental organization with representation on various United Nations committees and other international bodies. We seek to influence international policy through representation and information, to build the humanist network, and let the world know about the worldview of Humanism. The 6 members of the IHEU Executive Committee and some staff members elaborated on the activities of IHEU and how humanism and humanist issues manifest themselves in our various countries and elsewhere in the world.
