『心が折れるとき~レジリエンスを働かせよう~』自殺防止ワークショップ by 沖縄いのちの電話 長田清理事長 “When the Heart Breaks - Let's Work on Resilience” Suicide Prevention Workshop by Kiyoshi Nagata, director of Okinawa Lifeline
[With Simultaneous Interpretation 英語同時通訳あり]
人の身体には免疫力、抵抗力があり、病気や怪我から私たちを守ってくれます。
人のこころにも回復力が備わっていて、困難や絶望から私たちを救い出してくれます。
その力をレジリエンス(精神的回復力)と言います。人は苦しい時、困難から抜け出せないと諦めたときに、死を考えます。唯一の解決策だと思うからです。まやかしの解決で誘惑する死の幻影がちらつく前に、レジリエンスの引き出し方、活用の仕方を考えましょう。
対話をしながら進めていきます。私とあなた方の対話。そして話を聞きながら自分の心との対話。もし可能なら、お互い同士の対話もできたらいいですね。
The human body has immunity and resistance that protect us from illness and injury. The human mind also has the capacity to rescues us from difficulties and despair. This power is called resilience. When people are in pain, when they have given up, they think about death because they think it is the only solution. Before the vision of death flickers over us, tempting us with false solutions, let's think about how to draw out and use our resilience.
We will proceed with a dialogue. A dialogue between you and me. And as we listen to each other, have a dialogue with our own hearts.

Effective Team Dynamics (ETD) workshop 2
This in-person interactive workshop is for graduate students, post-docs, and other researchers. This ICOGS* workshop is offered by the Georgia Tech Effective Team Dynamics Initiative and will be facilitated by Prof Mary Lynn Realff (MSE). * (ICOGS) Interdisciplinary Collaboration for Graduate Students Working as part of a team, or group, comes with both benefits and challenges. The benefits include interacting with people who bring different viewpoints, expertise and experiences to the table. However, the challenges include communicating effectively with people who have different backgrounds and dealing constructively with conflict due to different viewpoints. The workshop will explore how diversity in a team can strengthen it, different approaches to dealing with conflict, how to have a “difficult conversation” with both peers and your supervisor, and strategies for avoiding communications problems. Take home tools to improve your team skills will be provided.
