IACCP Goes to Olde England

IACCP Regional Congress

July 7 - July 11, 2001

The next Regional European Congress of IACCP will be held in the ancient city of Winchester, UK between July 7th and July 11th, 2001. There will be a full three days of conference programme on 8-10 July. The congress theme will be "Capitalising on Diversity". The Congress will be chaired by Peter B. Smith, with the Organising Committee headed by Paul Redford and the Scientific Committee headed by Robin Goodwin.
The scientific committee invites submissions of individual contributions (both papers and posters) and group contributions (symposia and roundtable discussions). Proposals for pre- or post-conference workshops are also welcome. Consistent with the conference theme, submissions are particularly encouraged that explore the practical applications of knowledge derived from cross-cultural psychology. However, contributions that do not have immediate practical application are also welcome. Proposals for papers, symposia and roundtable discussions should be in English. Poster submissions may also be in French, German, Russian or Spanish, provided they include an abstract in English.

From August 1 2000, information regarding the conference can be obtained from Paul Redford (sidebar). The congress web site address is not yet available, but effective from 1 August 2000 it may be reached via a link from the IACCP web site (http://www.iaccp.org). Abstract submission and registration forms will be available from the congress web site.

The conference location is King Alfred's College, Winchester. It has a superb location within walking distance of central Winchester, the Saxon and Norman capital of England. Here you can visit one of the oldest cathedrals in Britain and view the circular table around which King Arthur is said to have sat his knights, many centuries ago. He thus devised an early instance of low power distance collectivism. The city of Winchester is just one hour's train ride from London.

The conference will directly follow the European Congress of Psychology, which is to be held in London from July 1-6, 2001.
