Dr Moya O’Brien will travel down under in a few weeks to present at the Positive Education Schools Association (PESA) Annual Conference in Geelong, Australia.
The theme for this year’s conference is Connect. Dr O’Brien will be conducting a workshop at the event entitled BUILDING RESILIENCE THROUGH NATURE CONNECTEDNESS. Moya will discuss the importance of connecting with nature in developing and maintaining our wellbeing and boosting our resilience. Participants will reflect on their own connection to nature and the psychological impact of nature on their wellbeing. Embedded strategies and tools using nature inside and nature outside the classroom will be explored. Participants will take away practices and techniques that will enhance their own skills in supporting and building resilience in young people they work with.
During her time in Australia Moya will also be meeting with schools and associated professionals to promote ICEP Europe as a leading international provider of online Professional Development Education for teachers. If you are interested in meeting with Dr O’Brien in Australia or the UAE please get in touch with ICEP Europe through the website or by emailing m.obrien@icepe.eu.
