The Society for Human Ecology (SHE)
is an international interdisciplinary
professional society that promotes the use of an ecological perspective in
research, education, and application.
SHE's goals are to:
- Provide a forum through which scientists, scholars, educators, and practitioners may
exchange ideas and information.
- Promote the advancement of an ecological perspective in interdisciplinary
studies and practice.
- Identify problems, discover their origins, examine possible solutions and
their implications, and then make recommendations for implementing those
solutions.
- Look ahead to the consequences of human action on our social, natural,
and
built environments.
- Build cooperative arrangements among human ecology programs and organizations
throughout the world.
- Facilitate the exchange of this information throughout an international
network
of individuals interested in human ecology.
The Society holds regular conferences, conducts workshops and symposia, and
co-sponsors a variety of related
activities to further
integrate work among professionals in fields
pertaining to human ecology. SHE is an affiliate of INTECOL (International Association for Ecology)
and
Ecological Society of America (ESA) and works in a consortium with other national
and regional human ecology organizations throughout the world. Members of SHE
receive a subscription to Human Ecology Review; special purchase rates
for International Directory of Human Ecologists containing descriptions
of the background, current work and areas of interests of human ecologists
around the world; reduced rates on other selected journal publications; reduced
registration fees at SHE conferences; the opportunity to join the society's
special interest working groups on planning, health, modeling, theory, and
education.
