Dear all
The BPS Covid19 Community Action and Resilience working group has been working hard to try and create more space within the British Psychological Society (BPS) for consideration of the experiences, resistances and responses of marginalised communities during Covid19 and how this connects to psychology, BPS policy & advocacy etc. It is far from perfect, but we are trying!
The group have organised an event... please come along and spread the word.
Free webinar with Prof Angie Hart, colleagues and young people from their charity BoingBoing and the Centre for Resilience for Social Justice
