This two day workshop will bring together experts from a range of disciplines: psychiatry, psychology, philosophy, ethics, law, theology, indigenous studies, religious studies and social sciences, together with representatives from faith groups and from survivor and advocacy organisations - to bring about a dialogue on the issue of sexual abuse and exploitation in religious contexts.
Of particular focus will be: the psychological/psychiatric and spiritual sequelae of abuse; the impact and damage on the victims and on the institutions and organisations that may be held accountable. This forum will provide a unique meeting of many perspectives, voices and disciplines and hopefully will enrich the perspectives and the work of those who seek ways forward fro individuals and for institutions.
