Power of Compassion for Inclusion: Compassionate Cultures – Action for Change

Introduction 

This workshop provides those attending an opportunity to explore our roles and responsibilities in addressing inequality and discrimination. How self-compassion and resilience are important vehicles for change, helping us to stay present in uncomfortable situations, to find our voice and contribute to building inclusive cultures.

About the session

This workshop provides those attending an opportunity to understand how microaggressions and microinvalidations can manifest and their impact. To understand how to support change at different levels, whether for an individual, group or organisation.  And how different approaches and practices can contribute to building an inclusive culture and make a positive difference.
