This exciting full-day event provides opportunities to explore novel and emerging practice in narrative approaches in education and research for professional health and social care practice. Facilitated through creative and collaborative workshops, interactive posters and social media, this event will develop networks to extend the theory and practice of narrative for enriching professional practice.
Hosted at the Executive Business Centre on Holdenhurst Road, the aim of this one-day workshop is to explore the power of narrative approaches for contributing to transformative education and influential research for professional practice.
Delegates will be invited to participate in a variety of creative and collaborative workshops, interactive poster stands and engage with social media to advance the theory and practice of narrative approaches for enhancing education and research for professional practice.
