A cluster randomised control trial\nProfessor Nasim Chaudhry, Chief Executive Officer, Pakistan Institute of Living & Learning and Associate Director, Manchester Global Mental Health & Cultural Psychiatry Group\n\nSynopsis:\n\nIn Pakistan, prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is high both due to natural disasters and ongoing conflicts. Children of trauma survivor parents are at increased risk for mental and physical illnesses. Parental PTSD is associated with difficult parent–child relationships, trauma symptoms, depression and behaviour problems in children. A recently completed trial has assessed the acceptability, feasibility and indications of the effectiveness of group integrated parenting intervention: Learning through play plus trauma-focused cognitive behaviour therapy (LTP Plus TF-CBT) for parents experiencing PTSD (n = 300).\n\nMethods/Design. This was a two-arm cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT). All participants were assessed for PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Child development was also assessed both before intervention and at end of the intervention. Preliminary analysis highlighted statistically significant improvement in trauma, depression and anxiety symptoms in parents who participated in the intervention compared to the routine care arm.\n\nLearning objectives:\n\nA detailed description of an integrated trauma focused parenting intervention.\n\nEvidence base of the integrated parenting intervention.\n\nPrevalence of trauma symptoms in low resource setting and exposure to high adversity in parents of young children\n\n3.10-3.25 pm\nshort break\n\n3.25-4.00 pm\nProtecting the mental health of children living through armed conflict and displacement: how can we help?\nProfessor Rachel Calam, Professor Emerita, Psychology & Mental Health, University of Manchester\n\nSynopsis:\n\nParents and caregivers play a vital role in protecting children and adolescents through war and displacement. Their own experiences and mental health, the changes they see in their children and the parenting they provide can have a profound effect on childrens’ reactions and trajectories. These in turn are related to the experiences and contexts they encounter. Pyramids of resources, from universally available psychoeducational materials through to specialised forms of trauma-informed interventions allow for screening and provision of appropriate levels of assistance. Given the scale of need, digitally available interventions that can be shared widely are of particular importance. The talk will share the experience of building pyramids of inter-linked, evidence-based, trauma-informed resources and interventions.  These have been developed in collaboration with international agencies, primarily UNODC, and with families and practitioners experiencing life through contexts of military conflict, displacement and resettlement.\n\n4.00-4.35 pm\nPsychedelic Research: Innovations, Challenges, and New Ways to Approach Trauma\nDr Fabian Devlin, Clinical Researcher and Psychiatrist, leading the Psychedelic Research Unit at MAC Clinical Research\n\nSynopsis: \n\nAn overview of the renaissance in psychedelic research, highlighting recent developments, current challenges including regulatory and ethical considerations, and how it may lead to novel approaches to working with those who have experienced trauma.\n\n4.35 pm\nClosing comments & completion of online questionnaire \n\n4.35 pm\nClosing comments & completion of online questionnaire \n\n
