The 32nd World Congress of the IALP was held at Aotea Centre, Auckland, New Zealand from 20th to 24th August, 2023.
IALP and the New Zealand Organizing committee were delighted to welcome 1,024 delegates from 54 countries around the world (10 % of them being students) to Auckland, New Zealand for the 32nd World Congress of IALP and the start of the celebration of IALP’s 100th anniversary period/Centennial.
Congress delegates were warmly welcomed to Aotearoa, New Zealand by the local iwi (indigenous tribe) of the land, Ngāti Whātua Ōrakei and the honorable Marama Davidson (Member of Parliament) in the Opening Ceremony. The invited keynote speakers, Prof Gail Gillon (NZ), Prof Georgia Malandraki (US) and Prof De Wet Swanepoel (ZA) as well as the WHO representative Antonio Duttine presented very engaging and thought-provoking presentations. The scientific program was complemented with an equally exciting social program with various half-day excursions and a memorable Gala Dinner.
