Will be talking about
connecting the voices of advocates working to address the needs of communities of color, people with disabilities, LGBTQ populations, and others;
promoting policies that protect marginalized and vulnerable populations, such as economic, food, and housing assistance;
marginalizing voices of intolerance that are resurgent with the pandemic spread; promotion of inclusive tolerant, equitable, and cohesive communities.
Kathryn Scot – Director of Policy at the British Psychological Society, UK
Kathryn will talk about what might be facing societies rebuilding in the context of Covid-19, what ‘the new normal’ might look like both short and long term, and what psychology indicates will be important. She will draw on her experience as a public health strategist, leading high-profile international campaigns, managing government relations and thought leadership programmes, and during Covid-19 as a member of one of the UK Government’s key scientific advisory committees.
Suzanne Wilson – Research fellow in social inclusion and community engagement School of Social Work, Care and Community at the University of Central Lancashire, UK
The ways communities respond to devastating events is influenced by the type of event and the characteristics of communities, and while trauma can help some communities pull together, in other cases, it can pull them apart. Most people have never experienced anything like COVID-19 in their lifetime and although the world has experienced viral outbreaks before it is very uncertain how communities will respond to the pandemic in the long-term. In her presentation, Suzanne Wilson will consider “community renewal” from a community psychology perspective, reflecting on ways that community identity may have been affected by the crisis, and how new forms of “mutuality” can help to build stronger, better connected communities.
