PSYCHODRAMA TRAINING WORKSHOP 5 - Living Systems: Exploring Family, Social & Cultural Systems - Perth

Moreno recognised that we are not only in relationship with one another; we are at the same time influencing and influenced by, the wider cultural and community systems that we are part of. We live and work in a variety of systems, from family systems, organisational systems, community, national and international systems.

We know the systems in our world through our own world view and perspectives. What you see, and what sense you make of the system, influences the decisions for interventions and engagement.

You are invited to explore the systems in which we work and live through action methods that can develop new perspectives, uncover hidden dynamics and shine a light on the influencing forces and the choice points of tapping into the hope in the system. Using sociodrama, sociometry and other action methods, together we will:

• Appreciate the social and cultural ‘map’ of the systems and the expectations that this may generate
• Experience and appreciate the relationships within the system, the dynamics operating, and participants’ individual roles and areas of influence.
• Explore the values and belief systems that assist in keeping the system vital and alive to respond to the changing environment or hold it back.
• Further develop the roles of social investigator, systems analyst and wise guide to creatively explore interventions, expansions, visions and actions emerging in the system.
