Psychology Day at the UN
Psychology Day at the United Nations is a celebration of Psychology in the United Nations context.
It provides an opportunity for psychology to share with UN Permanent Missions, UN agencies, NGOs, and the private sector the activities of psychologists at the UN and the role of psychology in addressing concerns of global importance. Psychology Day also introduces psychologists and psychology students to psychology’s current and potential involvement in UN activities and issues.
The Inaugural Psychology Day at the United Nations was held in 2007. Programs and presentations from all previous years are available online.
