President’s Invitation to the 6th International Congress on Interpersonal Acceptance and Rejection ISIPAR Congress, 2016

 

It is with great pleasure and excitement that I invite you to the 6th International Congress on Interpersonal Acceptance and Rejection. As President of the International Society on Interpersonal Acceptance and Rejection (ISIPAR), I urge you to join us from the 7th through the 10th of June, 2016 in the beautiful city of Madrid, Spain.

 

The Society is quickly approaching its 10th anniversary and, therefore, all of us who have been a part of it over the last decade feel really satisfied with the ways in which the organization continues to grow. In June 2016, the 6th International ISIPAR Congress will provide an opportunity to evaluate what we have accomplished and to also define goals for the next decade that help the Society fulfill its mission:  to support and encourage research and practice related to issues of interpersonal acceptance and rejection. 

 

I believe that the extraordinary work that the organizing committee is already doing to prepare this event will be reflected in an intellectually stimulating conference that will provide opportunities for researchers and practitioners from around the world to engage in enriching discussions around issues of interpersonal acceptance and rejection.    I invite all ISIPAR members and others interested in the Society’s mission to attend the Congress, and to participate actively in making it a success.  Lastly, I would like all of us to encourage other researchers and practitioners who are not members to join the Society and attend the conference.

 

I hope to see you all in Madrid!!!  (Espero verlos a todos en Madrid!!!)

 

Best wishes in this journey to our next meeting,

 

Karen Ripoll-Núñez

President, ISIPAR
