SUMMARY:Recognising and Responding to Bullying Behaviours
DESCRIPTION:A one-day Children in Wales course \nEvidence and practice show that bullying affects the emotional well-being and mental health of children and young people. Research has identified that: \n – Over 30% of Childline callers report that they have experienced bullying  – 2/3 of young carers are bullied at school  – “Bullying was a common theme\, with nearly every group citing this as a reason for non-attendance” (National Behaviour and Attendance Review 2009) – 18% of pupils in Year 6\, falling to 11% in Year 10\, admit to bullying other pupils (All Wales Survey of Bullying in Schools 2009) \n  \nReducing bullying incidents is undoubtedly a shared objective between children\, young people\, professionals and practitioners alike. However\, addressing issues raised by children and young people can often prove challenging and\, in some instances\, we may feel unable to resolve conflict.    \n  \nIn order to address issues around bullying it is vital that professionals and practitioners\, who work with children and young people\, have a shared understanding of what determines bullying behavior\, and feel confident in applying consistent approaches to prevent and tackle bullying. \n  \nThis one-day course will provide an overview of bullying\, addressing the following areas: \n – Understanding bullying and the complexity of behaviours that arise through bullying incidents – Recognising when bullying may be occurring – Responding effectively to reports of bullying – Identifying strategies to prevent bullying behaviours \n  \nPrice: Members £115  Non-members £135

SUMMARY:Arts Council of Wales Open Space event
DESCRIPTION:Do you love the arts? Do you feel audiences don’t get a voice? Do you feel like an outsider whose ideas are never taken seriously?Have you just started out and need support? Been in the profession for years and feel jaded? Is your community always left out of the discussions? Do you usually dread discussions and meetings? Are you looking to change things? Do you have a passion for the culture of Wales? Are you looking for stimulating debate? \nArts Council of Wales is running an Open Space event in Cardiff on 1 March. Open Space is not the usual form of public consultation meeting where people from the Arts Council talk at you – or where you turn up to talk about one thing and it’s never discussed. It’s a pioneering form of democratically-organised consultative meeting where you bring your ideas about where the arts in Wales should be heading and how we get there\, and are guaranteed to be able to discuss them. The day will be stimulating and inspiring – and it will allow you to really contribute to the process of creating a strategy for the arts.  \nYou can register at http://celfcymru-artswales.eventbrite.co.uk/

SUMMARY:IWA Coffee Shop Debate @ Chapter - "More Welsh than the Welsh - an immigrant's view of Wales"
DESCRIPTION:Deciding to move your life to a foreign country (Peter can trace his English lineage back to 1600) simply because “you want to” is dangerous. Live life as an ex-pat and you might as well not bother; engross yourself into the culture and life of your new community and “you get the bother”. These immigrants often embrace earnestly – learning a new language\, researching the nation’s history more deeply than many of its citizens\, and arriving at strong views about what it should and shouldn’t be like. Invariably having a viewpoint\, and having a strong viewpoint\, can upset the natives. \n    In this debate Peter would like to explore why people like him often become energetic campaigners for aspects of their new lives – sometimes despairing of the seeming indifference of the locals; why some of us think that a tiny country many no nothing about\, and few – yes\, even its citizens – value; and why it should be a world force for good. And\, naturally\, be a great place to live. \n    Peter Cox is ‘retired’ from his management and training consultancy which he had moved from England to Cardiff: “It seemed like a good idea and led to making our lives deeply rooted here”. He occupies his days as a writer – both journalism and ‘creative stuff’; has returned to radio broadcasting after a 30-year hiatus; has been involved with the Welsh arts scene for two decades including as chair of Chapter Arts putting in place the redevelopment programme; is currently Vice-Chair Cardiff Civic Society (after two years as chair) and a member of the RSAW ‘brain trust’ “where I get to argue with brilliantly creative and interesting people about the built environment in Wales”. \n    He has many previous speaking appearances at Chapter itself: a series of lectures on Cardiff’s Public Art; Election Forums; and appearances at Ignite#5 and Petcha Kutcha.     \nFREE entry
