The IAGP links together an international community of qualified professionals through world and regional congresses, publications, and activities designed to promote dialogue in the the study of small and large groups and other types of social organizations, and in the treatment of human problems within group modalities. The opportunity for meeting professionals from different societies, cultures and political systems has great potential for furthering international cooperation for purposes of research, training and clinical work.
