Brussels Conference Home

The ICSA 2007 Annual International Conference will take place at the Fondation Universitaire (University Foundation) in the heart of Brussels, Belgium from Friday June 29th through Sunday July 1st.

We have 99 speakers from 22 countries and sessions in the following areas (see "Current Conference" list below for links to complete listing of session abstracts and speakers):

  • recovery-oriented presentations for former group members
  • practical issues for family members/friends of people involved in cultic and related groups
  • legal and governmental topics
  • recent research developments
  • peer consultation and case-oriented discussions for mental health professionals
  • small-seminar discussions for researchers
  • small-seminar discussions for family members
  • small-seminar discussions for former group members

See the list below for information on program/abstracts, fees, registration, the conference site, hotels, and hostels and "bed and Brussels" (rooms in private homes). 

There is a fairly high probability that we will reach the site's maximum capacity a month or more before the conference.  Hence, early registration is important.

You will also find below a link calling for artistic submissions from former group members to ICSA's Phoenix Project.
