Unser Rahmen für diese Treffen lautet: Wie kann Lösungsfokus*

Mon 3rd to Sat 8th🇬🇧➡️🌐 SOL Summer Retreat 2020: Nourishing your SF roots to enable your SF Flourishing"The physical Retreat that was planned in South-East England can’t take place due to the current uncertain times, but we couldn’t bear the idea of not gathering in some way. So… we came up with the corona-proof plan to offer a world wide ‘individualised group Retreat’! 

The aim of the Retreat is: Nourishing your SF roots to enable your SF Flourishing

Imagine a time and place for you…

  • Where you can care for and nurture YOU - in whatever ways you feel would be most helpful during the Retreat period... 
  • Where you can take time to reflect on your SF practices - personal and professional - by yourself, supported by others...
  • Where you can make, renew, and strengthen your connections in the SF community - locally and globally

 

The expectations on those joining the Retreat remain the same: 

  • The focus is on creating a joyful, easeful environment for all to think, learn, share, play, take care of self and others; based our shared curiosity and belief in SF as a practical and useful methodology in work and in life.   
  • You come prepared to be as fully ‘present' throughout the Retreat as possible - create a ‘retreat bubble’.  Give yourself the gift of four whole undistracted days to focus on what is most nourishing for you and you alone as a person and a SF practitioner, as you would if you were away from home with the Retreat group.   
  • You are open to considering SF being discussed and used in ways that are very different to your own.  That is where some of the richest learnings lie…"

Mon 2nd to Fri 6th🌐➕ SOL Summer Retreat 2021: 'Nourishing Your SF Roots To Enable Your SF Flourishing' "It will be a mix of the formats that have worked so well over the previous 11 years, with an online base and as much physical co-location of participants as possible by August.

This year, we have planned it so that the Retreat will include the SF24 Conference; which is taking place on the 5th-6th August. We hope that participants in the Retreat will see this as an opportunity to include and support that event as part of their own Retreat planning.

The Retreat is an opportunity to meet other SF practitioners in an informal environment so that we learn more about how we each think and apply SF in our work and lives. And to co-create a joyful, easeful environment for all to think, learn, share, play, take care of self and others."

Fri 17th to Sun 19thShow in Google map🇩🇰 EBTA2020 [sic!] - BACK TO THE FUTURESHelsingør, 3000 Helsingør, Denmark"The conference have three themes as described below.: [...] 
1: RESEARCH
EBTA along with SFBTA have for years supported researc in Solution Focused practice, both on a quite practical level and concrete research projects. Research related to the Solution Focused approach, not only document and validate the approach and practice, but also helps spread the word of SF. This conference theme puts highlight on new research results, provide a setting for upcoming researchers to meet and talk, and to create a platform for practitioners to talk about, how we in the future of Solution Focused practice can learn and benefit from the research of today - and best of all, how can we support the research of tomorrow.


2: PRACTICE AROUND EUROPE
“Back to the futures” is the name of this conference. When you look back, you find that you were once in “the land of choices”, and beeing there provided the opportunity to create many kinds of future. And you chose one. This conference theme can be seen in the same way: once the solution focused approach was developed by Steve and Insoo, and some similar ideas by Luc Isebaert and Korzybski Institute. BRIEF in London have simplified the approach the most, others have combined SF with EMDR, or Marte Meo and others have been influenced by hypnoses or ideas from Wittgenstein, Ericsson or…. This track is an opportunity for everyone to become familiar with “what’s going on at my neighbors house” or “I’ll show you, what I’ve developed”.

3: FROM THE PAST TO THE FUTURE
The Solution Focused approach was developed in the ‘80, and ever since practitioners over the world have set their fingerprints on the approach by adding on new elements,  deleted others or integrated ideas from other approaches e.g. Today there’s a variation of fields of practice. Wonder how Solution Focused will look like in 10 or 20 years, and wonder what you will be seeing practitioners be doing in order to say; wauw, they’re working from a solution focused approach. This conference theme will focus on the basic assumptions of Solution Focused practice in order to define - if possible - the core of the approach, thus we in the future can identify solution focused practice. What do you need to see me be doing for you to say, I’m working in a Solution Focused way?"
