Group psychosocial support, training, and consultancy for journalists, human rights defenders, and frontline practitioners.
Rooted in existential and liberation psychology.
Third Space Practice runs group programmes for journalists, human rights defenders, and frontline practitioners working in conflict-affected and high-pressure contexts. We design and deliver multi-session group support, train facilitators, and consult on the psychosocial architecture of grant-funded programmes. Current work includes support for Afghan women journalists in partnership with Zan Times and Free Press Unlimited. Programmes are costed transparently and built to last beyond the funded sessions.
Group psychosocial work grounded in existential, un-colonial, and narrative traditions. Attention to cultural, historical, and political context shapes how programmes are designed, facilitated, and held.
Multi-session group support for journalists, human rights defenders, and frontline practitioners. Programmes are designed for the specific contexts they serve and held over time, refusing the standardised, short-form, over-medicalised models that dominate the sector. Ethical pacing, transparent costing, and continuity beyond the funded sessions are built into how programmes are structured.
Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.
