For psychoanalysts, intimacy is the currency of every session. It informs relationships with our patients, our theories and our own work. Intimacy transcends the individual/ dyadic, animating the construction of the social, familial and cultural dimensions of everyday life.

For psychoanalysts, intimacy is the currency of every session. It informs relationships

with our patients, our theories and our own work. Intimacy transcends the individual/

dyadic, animating the construction of the social, familial and cultural dimensions of

everyday life.

Intimacy permeates all facets of psychoanalysis, taking many shapes. It can be vivid or

shadowy, can reveal or obscure, be transformative or perverse, playful or constricting,

silent or passionate.

Psychoanalysis requires us to continually ask ourselves:

What is the relationship between intimacy and sexuality, body and gender?

How is intimacy sustained and, conversely, eroded in and outside the consulting room?

What is the danger to the analyst's life as he/she lives in such intimacy with their

patients?

How do we think about the infrastructure of intimacy, including the physical

environment; instinctual, individual, and clinical dynamics of coupling; families,

community and society?

Intimacy has a long reach.

For this Congress, we invite proposals that engage with intimacy in any of its

manifestations.

Community Models Presentations will focus on programmes outside the consulting room as well as programmes designed to integrate psychoanalytic thinking and community practice. Proposals should include a description of the project, its development and a sense of how it contributes to the role of psychoanalysis in the world. Presentations will be allotted a maximum of 20 minutes, followed by approximately 15 minutes of discussion. Films Film sessions should be a maximum of 3 hours in duration, including discussion. Films without English dialogue should be shown in a version with English sub-titles, if possible. Proposals should include the title of the film, a Chair and up to 4 discussants, and the language in which the post-film discussion will take place.

Prizes and Awards

The IPA makes a number of awards at its biennial Congress. The following awards and prizes are scheduled to be given in July 2017 in Buenos Aires. If you wish to enter for an Award or Prize, please ensure that your submission is completed in time as those received after the deadline will not be considered. Hayman Prize, Elise M. Hayman Award, Sacerdoti Prize, Training Today Award, Research Awards and the Tyson Prize for Candidates; IPSO Writing Award. The Hayman Prize for Published Work Pertaining to Traumatized Children and Adults This award, funded by Dr Hayman, was set up in 1997 to encourage interest in this specific topic, and to make the need for increased knowledge of the topic more widely appreciated. The study of the nature and characteristics of massive trauma to children, of the influence upon their development and functioning, and on succeeding generations of their children, should be the central theme of such a work. Preferably, the study should focus direction upon the subject population directly related to the Holocaust or should apply the understanding derived from Holocaust studies to the effects of massive trauma suf-fered by children living under repressive regimes elsewhere (for example, the children involved in refugee crises in different parts of the world). The award is US$4,000 and a certificate, and it will be announced and presented during the IPA Congress in Buenos Aires. Eligibility: Proposals may be made by IPA Mem-bers, IPA Candidates and non-members. Offered to the author or authors of the best paper on this sub-ject published (or accepted for publication) in a book or in a recognized psychoanalytic or other scientific journal during the two years preceding a biennial international Congress of the IPA. Submissions should include the journal or book reference and an electronic version (PDF or Word) of the relevant article. Elise M. Hayman Award for the Study of the Holocaust and Genocide The Elise M. Hayman Award was initiated in 1989 by Dr Max Hayman in memory of his wife, Elise. The award is made biennially for the most cogent, relevant and commendable work on the Holocaust and genocide, current or historical. The award is US$4,000 and a certificate, and it will be announced and presented during the IPA Congress in Buenos Aires. During the week of the Congress, the winner will be invited to give the Elise M. Hayman lecture, which is offered for publication to the International Journal of Psychoanalysis. Eligibility: Submissions may be made by IPA Members, IPA Candidates and non-members.

Continuing Medical Education (CME) – the IPA must plan and present scientific programme sessions that are in compliance with the criteria for CME as established by accrediting bodies. To this end, all scientific programme proposals must include two objectives and four statements relating to the educational objectives to ensure the session is planned accordingly. These items will be required when you submit your proposal online. IPA Congresses normally receive far more proposals than there is room for at the Congress so please be aware that many high-quality proposals may regretfully have to be declined. Proposals may only be sent in electronically via the IPA website and a separate proposal is needed for each activity. Please be aware that the IPA will not pay for any paper you propose to be translated or copied in connection with the Congress. Simultaneous interpretation will be available for selected activities at the discretion of the Programme Committee. The Programme Committee will follow the longstanding policy of generally limiting each participant to one major role and one secondary role in the programme. You will also be asked to indicate your audio/visual equipment needs, if your proposal is successful. The Programme Committee cannot guarantee that equipment requests will be met.

Tyson, dates from 2005. It is awarded for an excellent and original clinical paper by an IPA Candidate or by an individual who has graduated from an IPA Institute since the last IPA Congress. A “clinical paper” is one that describes the essence of a psychoanalytic treatment.

Rights

The IPA will disseminate the papers presented at the Buenos Aires Congress via an online repository that will only be accessible by individuals who have purchased a ticket for the Congress. For this reason, the IPA asks you to grant the IPA a non-exclusive licence to publish your paper on the IPA website and in other IPA publications (including our new eJournal, PSYCHOANALYSIS.today, where it may be translated into any or all of the five eJournal languages – English, French, German, Portuguese and Spanish) and to enable the IPA to grant a licence to other journals to publish it in any language. As the licence you grant to the IPA will be non-exclusive, you will retain the ownership of the copyright and the right to use your paper as you think fit. Authors will be asked to inform the IPA if a paper contains confidential material (such as clinical material) that should not be published. When you send in an Individual Paper online you will have the opportunity to mark it as ‘Clinical Material’. Such papers will not, if accepted, be uploaded to the IPA Congress website. Clinical Confidential Material; there will be non-IPA Members at the Congress, most of whom will not be bound by the IPA’s Code of Ethics (although they may be professional members of other institutions which have a similar ethical code – and, equally, they may just be members of the public, including interested patients of analysts, journalists and authors). Under no circumstances should you break the obligation you have to respect your patients’ confidentiality. Any clinical material must be anonymised in such a comprehensive way that if your patient was reading about themselves in your paper on the IPA website, or listening to a recording of the presentation or discussion, they would not be able to identify themselves. Please do not assume that because, for example, this Congress is taking place on another continent that your patients’ confidentiality is somehow of less fundamental importance.
