Dear all,
Please see the ‘news’ below. Thanks to all who
have supported this venture thus far.
I didn’t enter the recent debate about the merits (and
de-merits) of a section because we have covered the ground a number of times
over the past five years. My support for this endeavour comes from having lived
through the change from the apartheid government to democracy in
All the best,

Re: Proposal for the formation of a
Community Psychology Section
I am writing on behalf of
Professor Martin Conway, Chair of the Research Board, following its recent
meeting at which the above proposal was discussed.
The Board wished to extend its
thanks to you for preparing the proposal and for attending the meeting to make
a brief presentation and respond to its queries.
I am delighted to inform you that
the Board fully supported the proposal and its recommendation that the proposal
be put to a full vote of the membership (in accordance with Rule 40) will be
referred to the meeting of the Board of Trustees in April 2009, for
consideration.
Signed: Lisa Morrison Coulthard
