The International Attachment Network Around the World
International collaboration has been central to the International Attachment Network (IAN) since its beginnings. IAN brings together clinicians, researchers, academics and other professionals with a shared interest in attachment theory, research and its applications.
Across the international network, colleagues contribute to attachment research and publications, professional education and training, conferences, study groups and initiatives that explore the application of attachment theory in clinical practice, mental health, education, families and communities.
IAN encourages collaboration across countries and disciplines, creating opportunities to exchange knowledge, develop professional relationships and strengthen international dialogue around attachment theory and its contemporary applications.
IAN Chapters & International Network
IAN’s international community includes established national groups and a wider network of correspondents who help strengthen connections between people interested in attachment theory, research and practice around the world.
