One of our key hopes for this journal is to enable practitioners in different contexts to learn about each other's explorations and to be inspired by them. Each issue consists of a range of practice-based papers detailing hopeful and creative applications of narrative ideas. This particular journal issue is no exception. It contains papers by authors from Zimbabwe, Australia, Hong Kong, the UK, USA and New Zealand. We are delighted to include here a lead paper by Ncazelo Ncube (Zimbabwe/South Africa) about creative and inspiring work with vulnerable children in Southern Africa. How can the lives of children who have experienced significant losses be responded to in ways that are not re-traumatising and that bring to light children's own skills and knowledge? What sorts of exercises can be used in camps for vulnerable children? How can children be provided with significant experiences that do not separate them from their families, values and cultural norms? This paper describes a creative exercise informed by narrative therapy principles and practices.This is then followed by a range of papers offering practical ideas about ways of working with young people. There are also powerfully moving accounts of the skills and knowledge of young people in dealing with hard times. We trust you will enjoy this collection and we look forward to hearing your feedback. --- from the publisher |
