講座簡介 About the Talk

Is Food really Safe in the EU, and do consumers perceive it to be Safe?

The outbreaks of SARS and avian influenza, antimicrobial resistance and Bovine Spon-giform Encephalopathy (BSE) highlighted the need to mitigate emerging health risks using a One Health approach, as these are multifactorial diseases involving different disciplines and thus different perspectives.

During the 21st century, challenging global health threats have emerged, linked to zoonotic and (re)emerging infectious diseases (e.g. COVID-19, Ebola, MERS), climate change and environmental sustainability. These health threats are complex and cannot be solved by one sector alone. A comprehensive strategy and transdisciplinary collaboration on all aspects of health for people, animals and the environment is required, also referred to as the One Health approach.

簡介 Brief Description

香港於2019年經歷了反修例社會運動,於2020年則受到冠狀肺炎疫情困擾,整個香港的日常生活都出現了龐大的變化。經歷不同社會事件及暴力事件之後, 不少市民有極大負面情緒,甚至創傷(trauma)。有人形容對香港來說,這是一次觸發人道危機的集體創傷(collective trauma)。有見及此,良心理政及一群義務心理學家在反修例運動以及疫情中都有致力提供各方面的心理支援。

甚麼是創傷?個人創傷和集體創傷有不同嗎?在梳理創傷的過程中,敍事實踐如何理解和應對?集體創傷如何轉化?希望這次講座可以和大家一起探討這方面的問題。

講者簡介 About the Speaker

作為一名臨床心理學家,葉劍青先生在過去十多年熱衷於敍事治療(narrative therapy)的培訓和推廣。他亦非常關心香港社會事務,希望心理學家能運用其專業,提升市民的身心靈狀態,營造一個更美好的香港,故組織了義務心理學家專團「良心理政」並出任召集人。他有關敍事實踐的願景為:發掘隱藏的故事、暴露無形的壓迫、抵禦滲透的權力、擴大微小的聲音。
