Description
There is heightened attention right now on racism, its impacts and how it can be overcome. You may be more aware of racism in your professional, community or family life than ever before. Perhaps you find yourself in the middle of conversations about racism, with whatever level of enthusiasm or reluctance that involves. You may be deepening your awareness or gaining fresh perspectives from personal conversations, or from the media, movies, books, or your own reflection.
This workshop offers an opportunity to examine your experiences of coming to grips with racism. Our aim is to create the space for exploration and discovery and for appreciating the challenges and possibilities you may be facing. You will have the opportunity to generate fresh insights and build your resourcefulness.
The workshop is suitable for psychodrama trainees and practitioners, facilitators, educators, leaders and others interested in experiencing sociodrama and further exploring racism. and those with some experience of the psychodrama method. It will involve pre-reading and reflection; sociodramatic enactments; role training; and reflective conversations.
The workshop is being offered in both Melbourne, Australia 20-21 August and Wellington Aotearoa New Zealand 23-25 September.
