Conference Venue & Accommodation


The conference will take place in the main building of the University of Zadar.

Zadar is an ancient university city: As early as in 1396 the university was founded here, which was active until 1807, and since then other institutions of higher education performed their activities until the foundation of the renewed University of Zadar in 2002. The tradition of more than 600 years (the founder of University Iadertina was the supreme head of the Dominican order Raimund de Vinies form Capua) speaks for itself and  classifies this city with the oldest university cities in Europe.

The University of Zadar is the largest fully integrated university in Croatia. More than 5500 students are enrolled in the undergraduate, graduate and doctoral studies. There are about 600 employees at the University, including 450 members of the academic staff who hold scientific-teaching, teaching and assistant titles. As one of the youngest universities in Croatia (though historically the oldest), the University of Zadar considers not only  international, but also interuniversity cooperation with all the related universities and institutes in Croatia as one of its priorities, and it strives to develop  mechanisms and methods that will facilitate the establishment of international cooperation.

The Department of Psychology was established at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences’ in Zadar at the beginning of the 1978/1979 academic year, when the first generation of single-major students of psychology were enrolled. Today, there are 20 permanently employed academic staff members. Its main achievements are reflected in the areas of research, teaching, editing, organization of scientific conferences and international cooperation.

Zadar is a very walkable city, with a charming old town bordering directly to the mediterranean sea. All locations of the conference are within easy reach from downtown Zadar.
