30th International Congress of Psychology – ICP 2012     

22-27 July 2012  

Cape Town, South Africa  

 

The International Congress of Psychology, held every four years under the auspices of 

the International Union of Psychological Science, is the flagship event in international 

psychology. The previous 29th ICP was held in Berlin in July 2008 and attracted some 

11,000 abstract submissions and over 10,000 delegates. The 30th International Congress 

of Psychology is the first to be held in Africa, and is organised by the National Research 

Foundation of South Africa and the Psychological Society of South Africa, in partnership 

with key South African universities and national government departments. 

  

Organised around the theme Psychology Serving Humanity, the congress will highlight 

how psychology translates its science and practice into the knowledge, skills and tools 

that are able to underpin the human condition. Besides Invited Addresses and Symposia 

by global leaders in their fields, there will be scintillating State of the Science Lectures 

and Controversial Debates on topics of current interest, and exhibitions by leading 

publishing houses, technological innovators and international psychology organisations. 

Special activities will include an exciting Emerging Psychologists' Programme, Advanced 

Research Training Seminars for psychologists from the developing world, various pre and 

post congress satellite conferences and a variety of tours (including famous World 

Heritage sites like Robben Island and Table Mountain) and breathtaking wildlife safaris 

for delegates and accompanying persons. 

  

Of interest for teachers and students of psychology, psychologists in practice, other 

health practitioners, social workers, educators, human resource practitioners, marketers 

of products geared at the wide range of psychologists and anyone interested in a 

better understanding of the human condition.
