IPCD 2026 cuts to the core of the human condition in the 21st century, dedicated to fundamentally re-imagining the foundational elements of modern human existence: the Mind, the structure of Work, and the pursuit of Wellbeing.

 

Facing an era of exponential change and technological disruption, the conference provides a critical forum for the psychological community to proactively design future human systems.

 

Discussions will focus on building cognitive resilience and adapting mental health interventions for the digital age; defining sustainable, purpose-driven models for the future of employment amid automation and remote teams; and establishing holistic, systemic approaches to wellbeing that ensure human flourishing is prioritized over complexity.

 

The goal is to synthesize research into actionable frameworks that guide policymakers and practitioners in creating a more balanced, productive, and fulfilling global future.
