People have always been fascinated by the beginnings of human life. Generations have reasoned about it and built beliefs and rituals around it. For some decades now, professionals in various fields from genetics to psychology have with growing interest explored the importance of the prenatal experience for the individual's life, something always instinctively perceived by sensitive parents. In psychotherapy and treatment nowadays, there is an increasing awareness of the long-term impact of prenatal experience and bonding. To support this development the congress aims to introduce a broad audience to its modern scientific research, to personal and professional experiences and to innovative approaches from biological, psychological, social and transpersonal perspectives in this field. The awareness of the importance of the quality of prenatal life leads directly to the question of practical preventive measures. These should be aimed at improving the contact between the parents and the unborn, at positively affecting the relationship between mother and father and at reducing the frequently unconscious stress experienced by the mother during pregnancy and birth. The congress therefore also focuses on the prevention of emotional and physical damage to the developing child and its parents. The International Congress on Embryology, Therapy and Society is intended as a platform joining together different schools and different disciplines from various countries • for the exchange of scientific research and of new theoretical and practical approaches and experiences • as an incentive for the development of new concepts of prenatal care and of psychotherapeutic treatment • as a platform to establish new contacts and elaborate relevant topics in "project groups" beyond and after the congress • as an opportunity for self-experience. The congress will be bilingual in English and German.
