Games for community psychology.
We introduced some of our games for participation and conscientisation at the Lisbon International Community Psychology Congress in 2008. Since then we have been piloting them and amending them. We are please to announce that they are now ready for you to work with and pilot yourselves. We have to charge to cover the costs of producing the games – until we know there is a demand we cannot produce lots of them and bring the costs down.  So, if you would like to order one of the games: please use this order form which also gives details of the games.

London School of Economics: MSc in Health, Community and Development, based at the LSE Social Psychology Institute.    Catherine Campbell explains the programme:

The programme will draw primarily on community psychology, critical health psychology and social psychology. It aims to explore the role of community participation and small-scale collective action in public health and health promotion. It pays particular attention to the psycho-social processes underlying the impact of collective action on health, and the mechanisms through which community development approaches may lead not only to improved health, but also to transformatory social action. Our starting assumption is that efforts to promote health and to reduce disease need to combine top down and bottom up approaches. Whilst the primary focus of the course will be the bottom up dimension, emphasis will be continually be laid on the inter-dependence of these two levels of action and analysis.
