About this event

This meeting will be facilitated by Counselling Psychologist, Dr. Abiola Muhammed-Ogunfowora, and will focus on understanding and building resilience.

It will be especially beneficial given the challenges we face during this COVID-19 pandemic. The approach will be to focus on exploring individual emotional experience and how having an in-depth understanding of it helps build and sustain resilience.

Participants will be provided with a meaningful framework for understanding the internal experience, the tracking of emotions, and exercises that can be practiced daily to continue building resilience.

This session will provide support for community education practitioners themselves, and provide insights that can be used by CEN members in their own community education centres with learners and staff.
