An event hosted by the University of Kent will bring together psychology researchers, practitioners and voluntary organisations working on social exclusion and its consequences.
Organised by Dr Ayse Uskul and Dr Lindsey Cameron from the University’s School of Psychology, the one-day workshop on 6 June will showcase the impact research by psychologists into social exclusion is having on public policy and practice.
Among the presentations at the Canterbury campus event will be Dr Hannah Swift, of the School of Psychology, who will talk about ageism as a form of social exclusion, looking at its causes, consequences and solutions. Emily Georghious, of Age UK, will provide a commentary on this session. Prof Dominic Abrams, also of the School of Psychology, will join the panel discussion in the afternoon.
