We are developing a series of short talks with some senior Child and Adolescent Psychoanalysts and Psychotherapists, and we are currently recruiting contributors to this series.

Are you a parent worried about the well-being of your child? Are you interested in child development? Are you a teacher wanting to understand better how children work together and learn?

If you have answered yes to any of the above, the British Psychoanalytical Society (Institute of Psychoanalysis) would like to hear from you!

We are developing a series of short talks with senior Child and Adolescent Psychoanalysts and Psychotherapists, and we are currently recruiting contributors to this series.

So please send us your questions or observations about children and adolescents. We will then select 5 questions and the contributors will be invited to take part in our series of short talks by being recorded in conversation with the experts. The participation in a recording is not compulsory. This series will be part of our online education project and it will be available free via our website.

The selected contributors will be credited as participants and receive a voucher for an e-learning course of their choice.

The judges will select 5 questions and the chosen entries will be announced in January 2018.
