Webinar #212: Marion Knell - Avoiding Burnout
from ICMDA Recordings · host ICMDA
Recorded on 22 August 2024 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar with Marion Knell “Long an occupational hazard among social workers, burnout is a growing problem among those on the front lines, including aid workers, medical professionals, legal services providers and resettlement volunteers.”- Katia Savchuck (The Development Set) (Bright Magazine) Those experiencing burnout are putting not just themselves but their clients in danger. In Christian circles, particularly, an overemphasis on servanthood has ignored other Biblical values such as rest and refreshment. This session will look at the causes of burnout and compassion fatigue, then explore preventative strategies for individuals and organisations. Having been on the leadership of Member Care Europe and Global Member Care, Marion designed and instituted an MA in the subject. She now consults with European Freedom Network and Refugee Highway Partnership on Care for Refugees, Refugee workers and the Mental Health of refugee children. She has developed and recorded a course for workers and churches on Working with Traumatized refugees and Sustaining Refugee Workers, which has received CPD certification. She teachers regularly with CMF UK and is currently is delivering a course into Ukraine on Receiving Soldiers back from War.
