The Diversity and Social Responsibility Committee - Would you like to be involved?
The DSR committee was first formed in 2015. Our role is to raise awareness, create dialogues and monitor policies on fairness of opportunities and social responsibility within UKATA.
We think work with diversity can be complex and between us we have found this can raise psychodynamic processes related to our experience of and relationship with power, inequality and/or discrimination.
There are various roles within the group including writing and editing articles for the Transactional Analyst, keeping up to date with new legislation and UKCP policies, liaising with the Training, Accreditation and Standards Committee concerning fairness of opportunity with Registered Training Establishments, encouraging dialogue on themes of diversity and social responsibility to boost confidence and enthusiasm in our community.
In practical terms the commitment includes one meeting via Zoom each month for 1.5 hours and a strategy day meeting annually. In 2020 and 2021 these took place via Zoom, but we hope to return to an annual get together face-to-face in 2022.
The time spent on committee activities is classed as CPD (free!) and can be included on your CV or application for jobs.
If you are interested in our work and wish to join the committee, please email our member Hulya Ho**er at:
