I’m a Psychologist – Who Supports Refugee Children and Youth
Berlin | Xenia Kastner

What if your psychology degree could take you into the fields of human rights, migration, and social change? In this lecture, Xenia Kastner shares her experiences from working in international and national non-governmental organisations and offers a perspective on psychology at the intersection of human rights, migration studies, and social psychology. Especially in the current political and global situation, this field highlights how urgently psychologists are needed to advocate for the mental health of marginalised and politically persecuted groups.
This talk focuses on psychological and psychosocial work with refugee children and youth in the context of human rights and migration.
Students will gain insight into a socially and politically relevant career path and are invited to reflect on how psychology can be used far beyond classical settings.
