Subject: [COMMUNITYPSYCHUK] Edinburgh Event

Hi all,
If anyone happens to be in Edinburgh on March 2nd we are having a networking event …
All are welcome,
Best wishes,
Rebekah

Community Psychology Networking Event

12:30 – 1:30 Lunch

1:30 – 4:00pm Networking Event

Friday 2^nd March 2007

Edinburgh University

20 West Richmond Street

Edinburgh EH8 9DX

(Come to the Mackenzie Medical Centre

and head up the stairs to the Seminar Room)

A ‘community’ focused networking event to discuss and share interests in community psychology and community guidance.  This event will be informal and low key but hopefully useful and a great chance to get to know some people with similar interests.

You will have an opportunity to shape the agenda on the day but our thoughts include: hearing about the projects we are involved in, sharing ideas and thoughts on ‘community’ and ‘participatory action research’, identifying helpful papers and resources, discussing future projects and looking for synchronicity.

A (flexible) outline for the afternoon:

1230:  Introductions over lunch
1330:  Welcome
1335:  Problematising ‘community’: are community psychologists and community guidance workers talking about the same thing?

1350:   Hearing from participants about their work and projects.
1450:   Problems with participatory action research, brief chat about the difficulties faced trying to implement p.a.r. both practically and ethically.

1520:   Discussion of helpful books, papers and other resources.
1540:   Ideas and plans for the future, what next?
