Paper fulfills a variety of roles in the  world. To the casual observer, paper can be a passive, single-use substance – something easily discarded after it has served its limited or temporary function.

Organizing committees for the meetings in different countries have typically provided insight into their local paper history. 


Trips to paper mills, artists' studios, paper factories and museums are arranged as well as a series of workshops and lectures. During a congress members have the opportunity to share their own knowledge.
