Conference Presentations/ Ireland Israel

The ToWo project was presented in the ESTD conference in Belfast Ireland, April 2010. It was welcomed by some 30 international therapists that watched our video, listened and inquired into the cross cultural issues that have been raised through this trauma therapy project. The feedback was very supportive, some have been interested in learning more of the special design created by ToWo, SE combined with Video and narrative therapy/education. Others showed interest and joined a group studying the basics of SE technique for trauma therapy/emotional first aid, led by Juditta Ben-David.
We are happy to announce that the project will also be presented on a panel in the
Tel Chai college, Israel, 1st July 2010. A conference about Trauma stress and Disaster aid.
All invited :-)
