The day will be opened with a lecture of the creator of Dialogical Self Theory, prof Hubert Hermans,  founder of the Self Confrontation Method (SCM). This method led to the establishment of a professional association (300  members). For his merits Prof Hermans received a decoration of Knight in the Society of the Netherlands Lion. His ideas were used in the formation of the government in The Netherlands in 2006. On the basis of his work bi-annual International Conferences on the Dialogical Self are organized in different parts of the world.

Workshops will be given by Agnieszka Hermans Konopka and Ton Voogt.
