Abstract
The last 10 years have seen a wealth of Personal Construct Psychology (PCP)
activity and innovation across Europe, producing a diversity of results from
different countries. Nevertheless, it is indubitable that a new generation has
arrived and new connections are being forged, and this is reflected in our
conference title: A New Spirit in PCP. The 2016 conference of the European Personal Construct Association (EPCA) was a meaningful
moment of encounter and discussion to continue co-projecting new possibilities
of learning and growth, both professionally and personally. Linking people,
ideas and dreams – the slogan of the congress – was the thread of the days
lived together, not only through almost one hundred contributions which
included papers, workshops and symposia, but also during the more informal
opportunities.
