The Resilience Forum is a space where we welcome and encourage discussion, disagreement and debate about resilience research and practice. As another way of developing our work further, we invite a few speakers to focus briefly on a specific aspect of resilience and then open it up to the floor. Presenters at the Forum have included parents, young people, academics and practitioners and a similar mix is planned for future events.
Monthly Forums usually alternate between Brighton and Blackpool but are currently being held online. In Brighton, we usually meet at the Falmer, Moulsecoomb or Hastings campus of the University of Brighton, and the Blackpool Resilience Forums take place at central locations such as the Blackpool Central Library. We have also previously run Forums in London.
“I was so impressed by the quality of the facilitation and the skilful way in which the activities created the space to think, and reflect, and we also were able to take away practical tools and new ideas. Win! Win! Win!” “To be able to reflect on our how I am integrating Resilience into practice was so valuable. I really do appreciate the forums which are consistently excellent, inspiring and challenging.” “Different aspects and different evidence – a very interesting experience.” “It felt as if everybody played a part in it. Great!”

Previous Resilience Forums
You can find information about our previous Resilience Forums in Brighton, Blackpool, Hastings and online here. Many of our previous Resilience Forums and Centre meetings have slides you can download, blogs you can read, or short films you can watch.
So far debates have included child protection, sociological critiques of resilience, hope, inequalities, well-being, mentoring, reoffending, whether RT can be used to support young adults, collective resilience, building resilience in practice and feedback from eight intrepids from Brighton who went to a resilience conference in Halifax, Canada.
“Very stimulating debate and enjoyable too. Thank you.”
“I enjoyed the points of discussion and the difference of opinion. Good to hear other people’s perspectives.”
“This was excellent thank you!”
It’s a friendly, lively forum with a real mix of participants which we try to keep on the small side so we can have a good chat. So, if you feel like coming along just click through to the booking page. You can also subscribe to our mailing list so you get reminders in plenty of time. We promise to do our best to make you feel welcome, particularly if you’ve never been to one of these events at the university before. Everyone gets a look in at the Forum. As one community partner put it, “it’s not just academics gobbing off.” So come on down to the Resilience Forum. Three guesses who thought of that punchy name….
