Coming Together: Healing from Interpersonal, Systemic and Global Trauma

International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation Virtual Conference

We warmly welcome you to join us at the 2021 ISSTD Asia-Pacific Virtual Conference.

Globally, we face unprecedented crises and opportunities for social change. Long standing issues have reached a tipping point. #BlackLivesMatter, #MeToo and #TimesUp has focused public attention on the corrosive effects of racial injustice, sexual violation and gender inequality. Responses to domestic violence, institutional abuse, and child sexual exploitation are gaining momentum. These shifts are occurring against a backdrop of climate catastrophe, the COVID-19 pandemic and a global political landscape characterised by stark divisions and hypocrisies. How can the trauma field respond to these issues, simultaneously personal, interpersonal, systemic and political? 

Over two days, this conference will discuss how complex trauma and dissociation are being addressed within the Asia-Pacific region and will provide a variety of perspectives on treatment and research.

Looking forward to seeing you in online!
