Aims And Objectives

As every year, the International Research Conference will dedicate the time to reunite the diversity of the profession (different scholarly events) under the same roof. The conference program is as varied as it can be to cover all areas needed. All presentations are programmed to fit into the proposed time schedule, still, the length of every presentation will change a lot depending on the orator and the amount of questions. The spirit of the ICAP is always to foster knowledge and learning, hence, that aspect is more important than any other.

As the leading scientist of the profession get together in one place, the International Conference on Applied Psychology intends to foster the knowledge interchange as well as the experience exchange to help raise awareness on current problems that applied psychology can help with. On the other hand, it is also an interdisciplinary platform that helps practitioners, researchers and educators discuss concerns, innovations, trends and challenges. Through the interdisciplinary approach, the ICAP tries to find a solution that can help tackle new problems that arise in an ever-changing world. The diverse fields of applied psychology together can make the approach to a new problem much richer than with every practitioner doing it on its own.
