SUMMARY:Alternative Training on Prevent in Healthcare
DESCRIPTION:It is possible to create a society in which our collective safety and wellbeing are prioritised. Developing trusting\, healthy relationships with all of our patients is essential to this work. \nHowever\, Prevent ─ with the government’s stated aim of identifying “vulnerability to radicalisation” ─ compromises all of this\, and is a source of harm and increased marginalisation. \nWhy is the NHS the only healthcare system in the world with a legal obligation to engage with such a strategy? What aren’t you being told about Prevent in safeguarding training? \nJoin our Alternative Training on Prevent online on Monday 29th March at 6pm to learn more\nThis training will seek to shed light on some unanswered questions about Prevent. We will hear from: \n\nMembers of Medact’s Securitisation of Health Group (SHG)\nDr Tarek Younis ─ a cultural and clinical critical psychologist and lecturer in psychology\nMarcelo Camus ─ member of Medact’s SHG\, a social practice artist and co-founder and organiser of the Social Art Network\nReem Abu-Hayyeh ─ Campaigns and Policy Lead: Peace and Security at Medact\n\nThis event is particularly aimed at people who work or are training in\, study\, or who have worked in health. \nWe are aware that some people may feel some concern or worry about attending the event. As such\, we will be sending an email out to attendees prior to the event detailing how we will be seeking to make this event as safe and secure as possible. \nThe event is now full!

SUMMARY:Making effective Freedom of Information Requests [repeat]
DESCRIPTION:Due to the popularity and success of our first FOI training in August\, we are organising this repeat session on 13th October.\nGovernment and other public bodies often hide their activities behind a wall of secrecy. This session will offer practical advice on how to penetrate these walls\, extract information and increase transparency using a key investigative research technique. \nOur Research Manager will provide you with the know-how to make effective Freedom of Information requests\, which can form a useful part of many campaigns for social justice.  The session will be suitable for people who have never made an FOI request before and those who have done but would like to improve their skills. \nThe workshop will include: \n\nWhat information the the FOI Act entitles you to\, and from whom\nThe ways public bodies are legally obliged to help you find information\nHow to draft an effective request and avoid cost exemptions\nHow to appeal against unjustified disclosure refusals\, including arguing the public interest case\n\nWe are now oversubscribed\, but you can register your interest below to be added to the waiting list and we will let you know if a space becomes available \n[Registration has now closed]
