Writing Self-Care
with Evelyn Araluen
Workshop Duration:
45 minutes
Young people today are living through a time of increasing instability and uncertainty. Yet everyday we see more and more evidence of young people speaking up and out against injustice.
Writing through conflict, precariousness and trauma helps document the world we live in, to provide witness for the things that we can change, and to give voice to feelings that don’t always get to be heard.
This workshop explores the relationship between writing and self-care to explore tools and forms that can help shape and develop your voice.
Each workshop is supported by follow-up activities that can be implemented in the classroom to help students produce a piece of creative work.
