The Centre for the Study of Learning and Performance (CSLP), in partnership with the Canadian Practitioners Network for the Prevention of Extremist Violence (CPN-PREV), recently hosted a powerful Unveiling Equity session examining equity, dignity, and ethical mental health practice in contexts shaped by colonial violence.
Held at 4TH SPACE at Concordia University, the event brought together Dr. Samah Jabr, psychiatrist and leading voice in liberation psychology, and Dr. Ghayda Hassan, clinical psychologist and Director of CPN-PREV, for a critical conversation on witnessing, narrative, and justice-centred care amid ongoing mass violence in Gaza.
Ghayda Hassan & Zeina Ismail-Allouche were at the 4th Space for this timely discussion.
Dr. Samah Jabr, consultant psychiatrist practicing in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, is a former Head of the Mental Health Unit at the Palestinian Ministry of Health and an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at George Washington University. Trained in psychiatry in France and the UK and in clinical research in the United States, she is also a member of the Scientific Committee of the EU-funded Global Initiative Against Impunity (GIAI).
