Face-to-Face

Event Summary

We're back! After a popular inaugural event earlier this year, youHQ Live (in collaboration with Louise Dawson) is returning to Dubai this November.

Join us for a free half-day wellbeing and personal development conference on 15th November 2024, where headteachers, SLT, teachers, EdTech specialists, wellbeing proponents, leadership coaches, and psychologists will gather to network and share best practice for emotional health in UAE Schools.

In a range of keynote talks and breakout sessions, you'll learn about trauma-informed, neuro-affirming practice, develop leadership skills, uncover co-regulation approaches, and forge an inclusive whole-school wellbeing strategy for staff, students and parents.
