Starting July 2008, Opatija will host a meeting for some of the world's top psychologists in the field of Positive Psychology.
Over three days, they will discuss "the science of well-being". Our aim is to find out why it is that some people lives go so right. What is it that makes them happy and fulfilled, while others seem doomed to founder in misery, dissatisfaction and dejection?
The new and rapidly growing field of Positive Psychology is shedding light to what makes us happy, the pursuit of happiness, and how we can lead more fulfilling, satisfying lives.
And by doing so it covers topics such as well-being, happiness, positive emotions, psychological health, personal strengths, positive experiences and states (mindfulness, flow, creativity), positive enviorments and the positive characteristics of individuals, groups, institutions and communities.
The major purpose of the conference are to present an outstanding scientific program and to promote international exchange. So come to participate in this new and exciting field of psychology and meet your old and future friends!
Welcome to the 4th European Conference on Positive Psychology in beautiful city of Opatija.
