The Link Centre Social Responsibility Conference
The Work of Wholeness in Fragmented Times: A Trainee-led Conference on Psyche, Society and Social Responsibility
How do we work towards wholeness in a time of fragmentation?
How do we respond to social division, collective trauma and uncertainty while remaining connected to ourselves, one another and our wider communities?
Hosted by the Link Centre’s Trainee Social Responsibility Committee, this unique conference brings together trainees, practitioners, educators and community leaders to explore these questions through dialogue, reflection and learning.
Headline Keynote Speaker: Jazz Rehal, MSc PTSTA
We are delighted to welcome Jazz Rehal as our headline keynote speaker.
Jazz is a respected practitioner, educator and Link Centre tutor who co-created the Feminist Liberation Model of Transactional Analysis, recently published in UKATA’s Transactional Analysis magazine. Her work offers an important contribution to contemporary conversations about power, identity, oppression, liberation and social responsibility.
Conference Programme
The conference will include:
- Keynote address from Jazz Rehal
- Workshops and presentations from Link Centre trainees
- Contributions from Link Centre tutors
- Guest speakers working at the forefront of addressing structural trauma and social inequality
- Opportunities for discussion, networking and reflection
Further programme details will be announced soon.
