The theme is: Action Speaks Louder.

Invitation to participate in the pre-conference study day for British Psychodrama Association Conference 2010 "Show Me... The Evidence: The effectiveness of psychodrama and action methods in different settings". Moreno is reputed to say “Show me...” This study day aims to do just that with presenters from different backgrounds presenting or ‘showing’ evidence from their research and practice. 6th March 2010 also at: Royal Agricultural College Cirencester. (In an unprecedented move the 2010 conference committee have chosen to hold a pre-conference study day well ahead of the conference dates. In the true spirit of psychodrama, this study day is the warm up to the national conference and aims to explore some of the current evidence base for psychodrama and creative arts therapies.)

Light finds the way - The Third International Sociodrama Conference 2 - 5 September 2010. Patagonia - Argentina.
It is about gathering to work, to discover and to study. Those who participate will be able to present their thoughts put into action, share their reflexions and the possibilities they recognize in Sociodrama.

The First International Sociodrama Conference was held in Portugal out of an intuition felt by Manuela Maciel and her team of sociodramatists, and was named "Transparent looks". The Second Conference was named "Society's Shadows" and was held in Stockholm and Helsinki. Where, during the closing session, it was decided that the next one would be held in Patagonia- Argentina, a place of beginnings, where the whales dwell.

The number of participants is limited, for during the conference it is expected to create a space where everybody can meet, get to know each other and share. Scientific Coordination: Team of Professors of the Post-Degree Seminars: "Sociodrama and Role-playing en organizaciones" and "Supervisión y Técnicas en Psicodrama", Universidad de Buenos Aires.  Scientific Coordinator: Mónica Zuretti  monica@zuretti.com.ar , mzuretti@hotmail.com
