International Community Psychology

Welcome to a digital repository which remembers and celebrates the International Conference of Community Psychology. The conferences were initiated in San Juan, Puerto Rico in 2006. They have since been held biannually in Portugal, Mexico, Spain, Brasil, South Africa, Chile and online in Australia. The conferences have been sustained through an organic, collaborative process and there is no central organising body per se. Previous conference holders become part of the democratic process of selecting future ones. Over the years the conference has fostered important trans-national networks of people that have produced a number of special issues, papers, presentations and other work. A more detailed history of the conferences can be found here

The site will be an active, dynamic archive of  conference material, and community psychology related resources, news, and upcoming events. The site is a collaborative effort from the countries that have hosted previous conferences, but if you have any material suitable for the site, please contact us and we will endeavour to include it.

While the site is constantly evolving, there is plenty to see. There are the full programs for each conference, special issues published from each conference, flyers, videos, and other promotional material. Australia having hosted the first fully online ICCP has most of the content available to watch here. There are also a large number of photographs from all the conferences, just search the photo galleries from the menu above.

We hope you take some time to enjoy and engage with the work, spirit and people who have come together every two years to foster the International Conference on Community Psychology.
