Psychology Bridging the Gap
The European Semester of Psychology takes place at a different European country each semester. It is hosted by a different EFPA member organisation and aims at creating a common space in which European psychologists can interact and communicate as well as creating opportunities for local communities to interact with other psychologists and perspectives.
The current European Semester of Psychology takes place in Cyprus and is hosted by the Cyprus Psychologists’ Association. During this time, a number of events, both EFPA internal events and open to the community, will take place in Nicosia and will gather participation from across the continent.
During the Cypriot European Semester of Psychology, from July to December 2018, a number of events will be organised and hosted by the Association. Different events will bring a large number of psychologists from across the continent and we hope to generate an environment for local and guest psychologists to share experiences and develop.
The following events are currently confirmed:
- September 23 – Hiking for BeActive week [more info]
