The Power of Language

Workshop Abianda

About the CPD course

We explore the language that may be used in relation to young women and girls affected by gangs and county lines - "streetwise"; "hard to engage"; "difficult" etc. We share young women's reflections on how this kind of language influences their experience of working with professionals. We explore how language creates power in the context of attendees' organisations; and how we can influence culture and society through our use of language.
