Description

This two day virtual workshop uses a diversity lens to explore contemporary approaches to recovery-oriented practice in mental health settings. It is designed to stimulate the interest of participants in the range of issues related to transcultural mental health and recovery. Using a variety of facilitation modes, grounded in a reflective practice approach, the workshop provides learners with the opportunity to explore the challenges and realities of working within cultural responsiveness frameworks, including an intersectional lens. The workshop also invites and promotes strategies for adapting practice to be culturally responsive, including being self-reflective, in a variety of mental health settings.

This workshop takes a blended learning approach, and has three components. The virtual workshops are conducted over two half days via Zoom and supplemented with self-directed online learning. Participation at both workshops is required. See below for details:

Component 1: Workshop: Day 1, Wednesday 20th July, 9:30am-12:30pm
Component 2: Self-directed online learning module, approximately 2 hours duration. Access will be provided at the end of Day 1.
Component 3. Workshop: Day 2, Wednesday 27th July, 9:30am-12:30pm
