Society and an Academic Member of the College of Community Psychologists. She also served on the APS Board of Directors and on the Public Interest Advisory Group, and was a key contributor to APS position papers and public statements on substance use, gambling,
the social determinants of health, and climate change. She was the recipient in 2016 of the APS College of Community Psychologists' Robin Winkler Award for a project designed to inform headspace youth mental health services of how best to ensure that its services
were accessible to and inclusive of young people from population groups who often have high levels of need for mental health support but can be marginalised from mainstream services access.</span></p>

<span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;margin:0px;color:black">If you are over 50 and you join one social group today you will cut your risk of being diagnosed with depression in the next two years by 24%. With every group membership that that you join
after retirement, your quality of life increases by 10%, and your life expectancy increases by about 3%. Group life is an important determinant of well-being and health, yet its importance is rarely discussed, and far less explained. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This
session will explain how groups exert a profound impact on our psychology and health through their capacity to be internalized within the self as part of our </span><em style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">social
identity</em><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> (a sense of the self as ‘we' and ‘us', not just ‘me' and ‘I'). It will show that when this occurs, groups are a gateway not only to social support but also to a sense of meaning, belonging,
purpose, and agency - factors that in turn have powerful consequences for our psychological and social functioning. They also play a key role in tackling epidemics of anxiety and loneliness that are a scourge of contemporary Western society. Professor Haslam
discusses how these ideas can be translated into practice through targeted social prescribing and a novel theory-derived intervention: Groups 4 Health. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Please click here for

<span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;margin:0px;color:black">While behavioral and health sciences have mainly been concerned with the private good, there is an urgent need to understand and foster the collective good. Without a coherent framework for
the common good, it will be extremely difficult to prevent and manage crises such as pandemics, illness, climate change, poverty, discrimination, injustice, and inequality, all of which affect marginalized populations disproportionally. While frameworks for
personal well-being abound in psychology, psychiatry and counselling, conceptualizations of collective well-being are scarce. Our search for foundations of the common good resulted in the identification of three psychosocial goods: wellness, fairness, and
worthiness, which concurrently advance personal, relational, and collective value. They also represent basic human motivations, have considerable explanatory power, exist at multiple ecological levels, and have significant transformative potential. Professor
Prilleltensky will use empirical evidence to show how justice leads to experiences of worthiness, which enhances wellness. </span></p>
