Where \u2018expertise\u2019 is not guaranteed its own \u2018epistemic superhighway\u2019? Where \u2018helping systems\u2019 are easily confused with interagency- or integrated practice? Where the natural shifts are towards structural rather than relational solutions?<br \/>\nThis will be as much as possible an interactive workshop with an intention to co-create some answers to these and other questions. We will cover five main subject areas with brief presentations, and then exercises to facilitate exploration and opportunities for shared dialogue.<br \/>\nTopics:<br \/>\n\u25cf The state of the universe: are we facing a new Dark Ages, an epidemic of epistemic mistrust?<br \/>\n\u25cf Trust and Mistrust in helping systems: the rightful place of vigilance, mistrust and credulity<br \/>\n\u25cf Forms of Trust, and Social Networks: remembering that epistemic trust is not the only form of trust that we rely on, and learning about the networks across which this trust is shared.<br \/>\n\u25cf The problem of Power: how we ignore it at our peril, and how we might understand and work effectively within its complexity<br \/>\n\u25cf Communities of Practice: what we got wrong in earlier versions of AMBIT, and the ways ahead to create, hold onto, and share learning.<br \/>\nDickon Bevington and Peter Fuggle, both known as lively and engaging speakers, cofounded AMBIT (Adaptive Mentalization-based Integrative Treatment) at Anna Freud. AMBIT is a systemic application of mentalization-based theory and practice that is being applied around the world to many working contexts involved with the complex helping systems for clients facing needs that are multiple and intersecting.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<strong>Presenters<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><i>Dickon BEVINGTON &#8211;
