It is too late to book a place for this particular session, sorry about that.
This four-week programme explores how a just and connected community can withstand adversities and catastrophes, no matter the source. Grounded in these Five Foundational Protective Factors for Building Universal Mental Wellness & Transformational Resilience, this series of workshops brings together people working at the intersection of climate and other disaster preparedness and mental health in communities across Scotland.
What conditions make it more likely that a community can respond to challenges with resilience, perhaps even growing more resilient when disaster strikes? To truly support community-wide wellbeing, we need shared tools, better relationships, and local response systems that empower us to prepare and health together. Connected communities can help withstand shocks and knock-on effects to our collective mental, emotional, and physical health.
