DIVISION NEWS
Division 4: Environmental Psychology
Dear friends and colleagues,
It is our pleasure to announce that the International Conference on Environmental Psychology – ICEP 2023 will take place from June 20 to 23, 2023, in the beautiful city of Aarhus, Denmark. The conference will be held under the auspices of the Division of Environmental Psychology of the International Association of Applied Psychology.
The ICEP 2023 will be an international benchmark for experienced scholars, junior researchers and professionals working in the field of Environmental Psychology across the world. The ICEP 2023 will also welcome the participation of experts from other fields interested in environmental issues and human behaviour, to strengthen the dialogue and the multidisciplinary collaboration between psychological science and other disciplines, such as architecture, economics, geography and natural science, and to foster the links between environmental research and policy.
The aim of the conference is to promote the scientific debate over the most recent empirical findings and theoretical advances in environmental psychological science, and to stimulate peer-to-peer discussions in qualified networks on the relationship between humans and their environment.
ICEP 2023 is now open to submissions! Please submit by January 15, 2023.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Aarhus in June 2023!
On behalf of the local organizing team,
