"Environment and Psychology" Workshops and Seminars
 |
Our “Environment and Psychology” workshops deal with a
range of issues:
e.g., how
to cope with
environmental risk and fear, how to develop a sense of political efficacy, and how to sustain effective advocacy.
Workshops are experiential
and student-centered,
focusing on underlying causes of environment-related distress, as well as empowerment. Workshops
are customized.
|
|
“Environment and Psychology” seminars emphasize a rethinking of contemporary environmental problems from a
psychological perspective. Most
seminars include international comparisons, to deepen "ecopsychological"
understandings that
transcend boundaries and culture.

"In Japan, environmental problems are often discussed with a dramatically
different set of psychological concepts than
what we generally hear in
the U.S.
These differences take us to the heart of how we
define ourselves."
--Steven M. Hoffman, Hoffman and Associates
