BAATN Online conference 2025 Belonging: An Act of Visibility and Revolution
11th October 2025
Belonging is revolutionary; it fosters safety, stability, and community—essentials for human well-being. Being heard, valued, accepted, loved, and respected is crucial for creating a more just and inclusive society. However, we must remain vigilant.
Yvonne John – Unseen and Unacknowledged: From the Invisible Wounds of Childlessness to Finding Where We Belong
Wanderley Santos – Belonging: Black Being as a Politics of Presence

Workshop feedback and comments
BAATN In Person Conference 2025 - The Child Within: Separation and Loss
26th and 27th April 2025
The invitation was to explore the inner child who complies and conforms to past narratives, as well as the child who is playful and joyous in the moment. This journey isn’t simple or straightforward. The hope was to create an environment where we felt safe enough and challenged enough to express our vulnerabilities and also experience the power and passion that our inner child can inspire.
