​Every two years, the International Network for Peace Psychology (INPP) coordinates International Symposia on the Contributions of Psychology to Peace. The Symposia take place all around the world, and aim to foster a vibrant, diverse, and inclusive global community of scholars and practitioners working for peace, social justice, and sustainability using a rich mix of research and practice. Symposia provide an intimate and engaged platform for presenting and discussing current scholarship in peace psychology and for engaging in intercultural exchange of ideas and experiences.

The 2026 symposium will be hosted by Ateneo de Manila University in the Philippines on 23-27 March.
