Centre for children, youth & family research

Book launch in Oslo

Peter Berliner was invited to give a short presentation on the project Art and Social Communities in a Greenlandic Context - which is funded by the Norwegian Arts Council and the Danish Arts Foundation and has taken place at Ilisimatusarfik in good cooperation with Atuarfik Kilaaseeraq in Maniitsoq.

The project received much recognition as an important contribution to both our local and our global knowledge of how art can contribute to creating social communities. It is part of a major research initiative that has emerged through a collaboration between the Norwegian Arts Council and the Danish Arts Foundation.

The book launch was well attended and streamed - you can watch it on the Arts Council's website.

The book is published both in print and on the internet.

Peter Berliner’s presentation about "Childhood is Shrinking"

Childhood is Shrinking and Made to be More Linear and Functional. PeterBerliner is a lecturer and professor at the University of Greenland.

Early impairment, a lack of bonding, underdeveloped executive functions and vulnerability: all signs of individual discourses and 'therapeutic states' that turn us into clients and patients.

Too much individualization and internal competition emphasize the importance of flexible and complex networks. Social resilience and collective learning processes can create developmental pathways that punch holes in the urge to think in overriding categories.
