ABSTRACT:
After identifying some common collective transgenerational traumas in the group, we will choose one collective pattern to better understand any collective wound and the transgenerational events that have contributed to it. We will also identify, express and reinforce some collective positive resources After some enactments with sociodrama techniques of the problematic situation, together with the positive resources, we will evolve to surplus reality to find and experience different endings for the unfinished business, and we will try to reflect and co-create different solutions for this common collective trauma.

ABSTRACT:
In our team, the Environmental Social Science Research Group, we have recently started an internal reflection on hope. As professionals working in the field of environmental sustainability research, ESSRG researchers are increasingly exposed to high levels of mental stress caused by the environmental crisis. In this workshop, we would like to take the next step of this reflective work with the aim to sociodramatically process the themes of environmental anxiety, resilience, burnout, etc., and reflect on how we can preserve our mental well-being in the close study of polycrisis.
In addition to the ESSRG team members (6-8 people), we would also invite external professionals working in a similar field (about 5 people), and we would welcome about 5-8 people from the international scene to the conference.
Duration: 3 hours, followed by a wrap-up discussion.
The workshop is supported by the TRIGGER project (GA 101057739).
