Congress Theme: Diversity in Harmony: Insights from Psychology

Today, diversity in our world can be seen as both problematic and beneficial. For example, there is diversity related to ethnicity and culture and to physical attributes and health. There is also diversity among the various domains of the field of psychology. The term harmony is derived from Greek words meaning "joint, agreement, concord" and "to fit together, to join," and is most often used in music to indicate different tones that together make a more pleasing or striking sound. This concept of "living together," of many diverse constituent parts coexisting in accord forms the basis of ICP2016.
