We are pleased to welcome you to the Sixth Biennial Conference of the International Society of Critical Health Psychology on:
"Critical Thinking in Health Psychology"
The conference will be hosted by the University of Lausanne in Switzerland and is being held for the first time in a non English-speaking area. It will take place at the Dorigny Campus from July 8th to the 11th , 2009. Switzerland is a multilingual country and the seat of several International Organizations interested in health issues. Thus, this country represents an appropriate place for international exchange and dialogue among disciplines and cultures. The aim of this Sixth International Conference of Critical Health Psychology is to promote dialogue between interdisciplinary researchers and practitioners coming from different theoretical and cultural backgrounds, whether they belong to Anglo-Saxon or European and/or French-speaking approaches. The conference is focussed on critical issues in health psychology, but participation is not limited to health psychologists - we welcome participation from researchers in any relevant discipline, including sociology, anthropology, geography, media and communications, cultural studies, etc.
