Background: A Dutch delegation of 45 clinical psychologists (in training) and science-practitioners visited their colleagues in Lisbon, Portugal as part of their post academic education program. Hospitals, mental healthcare facilities, universities, start-ups and innovation centers were visited. Purpose: Comparing the differences in the organization of healthcare systems and exchanging information to find inspiration for innovations and solutions regarding the challenges within their own countries. Method: An extensive program of working visits covering the entire spectrum relevant to the work of a psychologist: the clinical evidence-based work, the profession and how to organize scientific research and (technological) innovations in the field. Results: There was agreement between the participants from both countries that these topics require constant attention to promote the relevance of psychology in different domains such as (public) healthcare and scientific research. In addition, the importance of uniformity in education and training, examination and implementation of the profession of psychologists in a European context was supported. Conclusion: The exchange paid off: agreement about future international exchanges to inspire young psychologists, exchanging experience in the clinical field and cooperating in international scientific research as positive outcomes.
