PD-ICoP
Post-Doctoral International Community of Practice for Person-Centred Practice or PD-ICoP aims to establish a group of like-minded persons who are open to offer and receive high support and high challenge to enable our growth and understanding of person-centred theory and practice. It also aims to create a collaborative space to progress the current understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of person-centred research and practice.
