Jointly hosted by Group Analysis South West (GASW) and the Institute of Group Analysis (IGA)
24-26 April 2015
GROUP ANALYTIC TRAINING AND THE SOCIAL CONTEXT
Keynote speaker:
Farhad Dalal
Speakers: Spyros Loutsos and Mohamed Taha
Group Analysis emerged within a social context that was different from where we are now in the early twenty-first century. We might realistically expect group analytic training institutes to ask of themselves, and in turn be asked by those using or considering group analytic training;
- What does group analysis and therefore group analytic training institutes have to offer the world today?
- How might we understand ourselves and our role within the current socio-political context?
- Can we provide trainings that equip trainees to make a living providing group analytic services within a challenging and ever-changing social and political context?
- Do our training environments encourage or discourage independent thinking in our trainees?
If you are interested in the future of group analytic training, and its relevance to the post-modern world, then the 2015 Study Days in Bristol offer you the chance to think with others about these sorts of issues.
