Justice Delayed in Turbulent Times: Psychology and Wellbeing Toward Liberation
"Tuesday December 8, 7 PM Eastern"


Dear Friend,

On behalf of the Martín-Baró Initiative at Grassroots International, I am pleased to invite you to our virtual panel entitled "Justice Delayed in Turbulent Times: Psychology and Wellbeing Toward Liberation" on Tuesday, December 8 at 7 p.m. Eastern Time. Please register to join us [ [link removed] ]!

This event comes on the heels of a much-delayed moment of justice, as this past September Spain's highest court convicted one of the intellectual authors who ordered the murder of Ignacio Martín-Baró and his companions in El Salvador in 1989. Please join us to learn more about the psychology of liberation, as well as ongoing community resistance, resilience and wellbeing work in an era of relentless trauma.

The panel is organized by the Martín-Baró Initiative for Wellbeing and Human Rights at Grassroots International [ [link removed] ] (previously the Martín-Baró Fund), which has provided much-needed funding to support community health and wellbeing, particularly among those severely harmed by political repression, structural violence and social injustice.
