Welcome to the VI Intercontinental Psychology Convention Hominis 2013!
"For the integration of a psychology at the service and welfare society"

The Cuban Society of Psychology has been historically linked to these events since 1999, with a continuity maintained for a decade. The society announces Hominis 2013, which aims to provide a contemporary view consistent with the agendas and demands of Cuban Psychology, consistent with the dynamics of our social project with its achievements, perspectives and challenges.

These arguments sustain the call for this event to encourage a space for reflection, exchange of scientific and professional commitment to the dilemmas of the century we are representatives of a science that gains in maturity and experience, at a time of changing circumstances, reorganization and adjustments to the task of working for human betterment.

For this important event we invite you to participate in the analysis and discussion of a range of topics, from 2nd to 6th of December, 2013. The venue will be the Conference Center, located in the CUBANACAN community, west of Havana, Cuba.

Colleagues, we are convinced that the presence of us all in Havana-Cuba will stimulate pathways to success during this new meeting for our science and profession, and that the Cubans with their hospitality and joy, will multiply the rich discussions and exchanges that we hope to enjoy on the occasion of this event.
