Trauma Informed Public Engagement Methods Workshop

Thursday, Nov. 7, 1-4 p.m.

Zoom (link upon registration)

In this collaborative workshop, facilitated by postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Kate Lahey, participants will learn about trauma informed public engagement methods.

Participants will learn about some of the core principles of trauma informed frameworks, such as social justice and sustainability, for engaging with public communities. Together we will collaborate on envisioning strategies and practices, such as creativity and restorative justice, for bringing these principles to life in interdisciplinary contexts. We will consider how trauma informed methods can guide research practices and community organizing. These methods can be applied to a wide range of research and organizing practices, such as working with communities who have experienced violence or contextualizing historic trauma.

Dr. Lahey is a postdoctoral fellow at the Office of Public Engagement and the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador. Dr. Lahey’s research practice centers trauma-informed values such as healing, care, empathy, and social justice.

This workshop is for those interested in learning about how to connect their work to public engagement that is meaningful, caring, and trauma informed.

Academic and non academic stakeholders are invited to participate, for example, museums and art galleries, nonprofits and NGOs, government entities, corporate bodies, policy makers, independent artists, activists, business owners, community organizers.

Participants will be asked to bring an ongoing project or practice in their work to be workshopped. Together we will consider how trauma informed public engagement methods can be incorporated in your work.
