Strong Foundations, Sustainable Future: Work Psychology 2025
The theme of this conference—Strong Foundations, Sustainable Future—reflects the dual legacy of tradition and forward-thinking that characterises Dutch Work Psychology research and practice.
Dutch work psychology has consistently addressed the evolving issues that workplaces and workers face. These efforts have shaped the discipline locally and contributed to international advancements in work psychology.
This conference is organised to continue this tradition of researching work and providing the evidence needed to understand and shape it for the future. Join us in sharing and reflecting on the latest work psychology research and continuing to build our network of work psychologists in the Netherlands.
The conference host city shares much with the chosen conference theme. Known as the oldest city in the Netherlands, Nijmegen has foundations dating back to Roman times. Its rich heritage is evident in the city's architecture, museums, and archaeological sites, offering visitors a unique glimpse into the past.
