Welcome

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to The 9th ESRII Conference.

The conference will take place in Porto, Portugal, and is hosted by Universidade Lusófona Porto, 9-11 October 2026. We invite researchers from Europe as well as all over the world to share their knowledge and experiences on using and developing Internet-based interventions.

There is no conference fee!

The aim of the conference is to contribute to the development and implementation of the best possible psychological interventions to help people in need. The ESRII meetings have a long tradition of short and informative presentations of new research. All in a non-hierarchical and friendly atmosphere with opportunities for valuable discussions.

Welcome to Porto,
