This online workshop is a great chance for social service kaimahi to add something new to your SSPA kete mātauranga and support your professional learning and development. With Dr Debbie Hager having presented a well-received workshop at our Whakamanawa Conference last year and just last month kanohi-ki-te-kanohi in Tāmaki Makaurau, we are creating a space for more kaimahi around the motu to engage in this kaupapa.
This online workshop will utilise a combination of small group activities, audio-visual material and discussions to examine how the use of certain language to describe groups of people or populations can focus attention on individual deficit and blame, or on the contextual and socio-political perspective of a particular group’s circumstances.
