journal-cover-2016-2Dear Reader,

Welcome to the first issue for 2016!

This issue includes a diversity of narrative practice papers, including:

– Thoughtful ways of expanding the possibilities of definitional ceremony practice
– Narrative projects from Greek practitioners responding to the economic crisis and rise of racism
– Creative forms of documentation

We’re delighted that this issue includes three papers from Greek narrative practitioners. The community of narrative practice in Greece continues to diversify and thrive. It also includes papers from Belgium and Australia.

We hope you enjoy this diverse collection!

Warmly
Cheryl White
