Abstract

This conference will be held on 6-7 February 2019 in Yogyakarta- Indonesia, representing a gathering of leading scholars, community workers and activists from across the Asian, African and other regions of theworld, is the first such conference to be hosted in Indonesia. The legacies of colonialism and the contemporary exclusionary structural arrangements continue to deny the world’s majority a sense of dignity and respect, as well as the material and psychological conditions necessary for individual and collective well-being. Work within community psychology committed to social justice and psycho-social liberation has assumed multiple manifestations in teaching,research and applied practices across different regions of the world.

The conference is therefore planned as a forum to converse and dialogue about the multiple manifestations of community psychology that are alert to the influences of affirming religio-cultures on community life and that may draw on critical and decolonial thought to produce humanising community practices. The conference welcomes contributions that talk to the challenges and ambiguities involved in producing community psychologies that resist the persistent disempowering psychological influences of colonial legacies and exclusionary socio-economic arrangements on community life and, conversely, support the humanization of those constructed as the ‘Other’. The conference invites contributions that examine critically the theories, methodologies and practices that support collective well-being, empowerment, liberation and the making of compassionate and humanizing communities in the context of power differentials and socio-economic disparities.
