The main event organized by DHST is the quadrennial International Congresses of History of Science and Technology, the next edition of which will be held in 2029 in Paris, one hundred years after the first congress took place in the same city.
In 2023, for the first time, we also organized a midterm event (fully online), in-between two editions of the International Congress, and we are planning another one in 2027.
Below you can find a list of past and forthcoming events, including, when available, links to the relevant websites, program and other relevant documents. If you have any additional documents pertaining to one of these congresses, please do contact us!
