27th International Congress of Applied Psychology (ICAP 2010)
Melbourne, Australia
July 11–16, 2010

Hosted by The International Association of Applied Psychology and The Australian Psychological Society, the 27th International Congress of Applied Psychology will be held 11–16 July 2010 in Melbourne, Australia.

Since this will be the first IAAP Congress to be held in the Southern Hemisphere and, naturally, the first in the Oceanic Region, this is a golden opportunity to participate in this historic event which has the potential of moving us one more step further toward developing a picture of applied psychology that is more global than international.

ICAP 2010 is the premier international forum for applied psychology and attracts a large number of psychologists, researchers and professionals from around the world. Congress delegates are presented with an extensive program focusing on the importance of psychological factors and the application of psychological knowledge to individuals, groups, communities, societies and the world. The 2010 Congress will feature a series of State-of-the-Art presentations, leading a rich program that showcases the contributions of many specific areas of psychological expertise.

State-of-the-Art Speakers have been confirmed and Registration is now open.
