Human beings cannot thrive without a sense of belonging. Why? That is the question this ground-breaking conference will explore.

Over the past two decades, Scotland has been remarkably successful in raising public awareness of the impacts of adverse childhood experiences and childhood trauma. Discussions about the importance of emotionally attuned relationships now take place across all professional sectors and in countless family homes. What are the most essential steps we can take to boost a sense of belonging within our families and communities?

This conference brings together world leading experts on this question. None have spoken before, in Scotland, on the scientific discoveries that shape our contemporary understanding of the biology of belonging. We are delighted to be able to welcome them to our shores.
