The CISH 2005 Organising Committee invites you to attend the 20th International Congress of Historical Sciences, at the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, 3 - 9 July 2005.

The CISH Congress is held every five years, and this will be the first time ever outside North America and its European base.

The programme and structure cater to all historians regardless of their field. The programme will consist of three major themes, 26 specialised panel sessions and 20 round tables. Many of CISH's International Affiliated Societies and Internal Commissions will meet during the Congress, and this time they will include your host, the Australian Historical Association.

In addition, there will be an opportunity to network with your peers at a variety of social functions. Over 2000 delegates have attended previous CISH Congresses from dozens of different countries.
