This page shows events taking place in other countries that you may wish to attend

Balint work is active in many countries and the International Balint Federation brings us together in shared events, such as a biennial Congress held in different countries and in alternate years, a Leadership Conference. The IBF holds its Spring Council meetings at a member country's Balint weekend too. There are also a number of events held by individual national Balint Societies which include Balint groups in English, which we can attend, just as we welcome people from other countries to our events.

Hamburg, Germany - 24th October to 26th October 2025

 

“Do we lead Balint groups in a bubble?”

How do Balint group leaders deal with dilemmas of inclusion, exclusion and polarisation within the group and as a reflection of external reality?

24th International Balint Congress 2026 Aarhus – Denmark

October 1, 2026 @ 9:00 am - October 4, 2026 @ 4:00 pm BST

We are pleased to announce that the 24th International Balint Congress is taking place in Aarhus, Denmark, October 1. – 4. in 2026.

CONFERENCE THEME:

Connected, Committed and Contained

“The individual never has to do with another human being without holding something of that person’s life in his hand. It may be a very small matter, involving only a passing mood, a dampening or quickening of spirit, a deepening or removal of some dislike. But it may also be a matter of tremendous scope, such that the individual can determine if the life of the other flourishes or not.”

The citation is from ‘The Ethical Demand’, written by K. E. Løgstrup in 1952, when he was the professor of theology at the University of Aarhus.P
