Kos, cultural centre of science and civilisation
Kos is the island of Hippocrates (father of medicine), the third largest in the Dodecanese after Rhodes and Karpathos, lying close to the Asia Minor coast, between Nisyros and Kalymnos island. In 460 BC Hippocrates was born in Kos. After his death the people of Kos built the famous Asklepeion, in honour of the god Asclepios, which operated as a hospital applying the methods of therapy taught by Hippocrates. Hippocrates has for centuries been acknowledged as a world figure, who with his pioneering ideas, continues to inspire humanity. He is not only the founder of medical science but also a profound philosopher, a true humanist and an excellent psychologist.
Kos offers a healthy mild climate most of the year. Along with the Greek sunshine and the marvellous beaches made Kos an international tourist center and one of the most attractive and beautiful of the Greek Islands. Kos is connected direct by air from many of the capitals of Europe, as well as from Athens and Rhodes. There are ferries to Kos from most Greek islands, the rest of Dodecanese, Piraeus, the Cyclades, Crete, the Greek islands of the northern and eastern Aegean and Kavala. Large enough to be explored, Kos promises you unforgettable 64th ICP Convention!

The International Council of Psychologists (ICP) is one of the older international psychological associations with worldwide representation, whose members, officers and/or delegates are all, with very few exceptions, psychologists. Many of these are highly respected academicians, researchers, and/or practitioners in psychology in their respective countries. Most are members of national psychological societies in their own countries as well. Among these three international associations, ICP is the one that has held the most conventions during its existence dating back to 1942. ICP has witnessed considerable growth in international and cross-cultural psychology, both on the theoretical and empirical levels. The growth has encompassed not only research in the field of psychology but interdisciplinary work as well. The contribution of the Kos Conference is to present a sampling of new interdisciplinary research, focusing on conceptual and empirical findings.
ICP is accredited with the United Nations as a non-governmental organization (NGO).
We invite you to attend the International Council of Psychologists
64th Annual Convention
