We are looking for submissions that contribute to the understanding and development of the research, theory, and/or practice of these various approaches to therapeutic change. For information about the conference please visit the Fifth International Adventure Therapy Conference website.
We invite abstracts for papers, workshops and posters on any aspect relevant to therapeutic work in adventure or the outdoors. All abstracts will be peer-reviewed for relevance to the topic area. All abstracts from presentations at the conference will appear on BACP website. An abstract is required for all presentations, including posters.
