Abstract
Following the successes of our previous events, this conference will develop further conversations about the relationships and tensions between psychoanalysis and education. We are keen to invite submissions to participate that involve both psychoanalytic theory and accounts of psychoanalytic practice (where applicable), and we define education in its widest context. We hope to welcome academic staff, teaching staff in other areas of practice, and of course colleagues working primarily in clinical settings.
Call for Expressions of Interest in Participation

The themes of this conference are
Creativity, Psychoanalysis and Lifelong Learning. We encourage interested
parties to consider these themes and to interpret them in ways that lend
themselves to original and provocative ways of thinking. Queries are welcomed
in the first instance, and when you are ready to submit, you will be asked to
do so in one of a variety of formats. We will welcome traditional presentations
and workshops (and please indicate which you are proposing). However, we are
also keen to encourage less traditional formats of collaboration. As one of the
conference themes is creativity, expressions of interest that propose a
creative space in the conference are warmly welcomed. For example, colleagues
might consider a performance, something musical, a piece of artwork, film or
fictional writing.
