    We have collaborated with the other members of the Executive Council for the finalization of the agenda and the preparation of the General Assembly of 2019. Along with the Vice President Krzysztof Ciepliński we prepared the agenda of the last Council meeting, that took place right before the FEPTO Annual Meeting. We have continued our collaboration with Fred Dorn, Frank Sielecki and Judith Teszáry for the preparation of the AM small group on the Constitution changing process.
    I have been honored by the Greek Vice President of IAGP Katherina Mela to be vice chair of the organizing committee of the 2nd IAGP Research Congress that will take place in Thessaloniki, between the 14th and 17th of June 2019. We have attained a significant discount in the registration feed of all FEPTO members who are interested in presenting their work in the above-mentioned congress.
    Lastly, I would like to thank all the Council members for their friendship and support and all the FEPTO members for the trust and appreciation they have shown to me in the role of the President.

    c. Secretary and Internal Affairs report: Ana Cruz
    As Secretary, my main task was to minute the council and the executive meetings, to answer effectively and quickly to all questions and requests from our members by email and to collaborate with Ina Ilieva in newsletter editing. In the task of Secretary, I must address a special thanks to Horatiu Nil Albini for always being so efficient and supportive.
    As part of the executive council, I participated in the Padova meeting where we worked on the preparation of the AM and Conference in Tallinn and planned the GA Agenda.
    In Padova, as part of the editorial board of the International Journal of Psychodrama and Action Methods, I participated in the board meeting, together with Hannes Krall and Kate Kirk, and we planned the next steps. A call for papers was published in the Newsletter to which, personally, I hope all psychodramatist researchers respond enthusiastically helping us to move forward in accrediting Psychodrama.
    I want to express my gratitude to all my colleagues in the council, for their commitment to FEPTO and for their fellowship in this task.

        .
    4. Development & Network Committee report: Fred Dorn
      I had three topics I had to deal with: 1. Registration of application for scholarships to attend the FEPTO conference and/or the Annual Meeting; 2. Establishing the FEPTO – Platform; 2. Steering of the Process of Constitution Changing.

      1. One of the tasks of the Chair of Development is the organisation of scholarships, as they are regulated in the Scholarship Attribution Guidelines of FEPTO. They will have to be revised, since the wording “one scholarship per person is available for participants from countries such as Bulgaria, Croatia…..” is not clear enough. Concerning the payment of grants the Council has decided, that it is up to the LOC in charge to fix the amount of the Early Bird – Registration fee and the currency in which it has to be paid. According to that the grant will be settled. There have still been questions about the organization, responsibility, terms of application and payment of the granted scholarships. So we shall have to discuss the experiences and to overwork the guidelines according to our experience and requirements.
      2. The main task for me has been the establishing of the FEPTO-Platform, to make it a useful, practicable and necessary tool for our communication – in between the Council and as well in our community. I must admit that by now it has been accepted rather hesitantly. Anyway, the way it works it works, so I think it will take its time to be accepted and to become an obviously necessary instrument of communication in times of digitization on European scale.
      3. A first try I have made in steering the process of Constitution Changing which worked rather successfully. In several meetings Frank Sielecki and I overworked the still existing constitution, prepared a new draft and put it on our platform. We invited our working group – consisting of Nikos, Judith and Chantal – to make their comments and put the newly overworked draft as well on our platform. The community was invited to look at it and to make their comments and proposals by their own. As expected, there came nothing, but anyway, I wrote a circular to all members of our community – as far as I have their addresses – and got some encouraging answers. So I am not afraid that we will have enough members in our Small Group concerned with the topic Constitution Changing and that that will be a good opportunity to demonstrate how it is possible to work efficiently with the platform. The access to our platform and to the topic Constitution Changing you find here: https://fepto-networking.eu,  user name,  password:  Documents in Progress.
    5. Research Committee report: Johannes Krall
      The main focus of our RC work was on the following activities:
      (1) FEPTO RC Meeting

      (2) Journal on Psychodrama and Action Methods:

      • Cfp for an edition on Pd research (2020)
      • International editions in the Journal of psychodrama and sociometry (ZPS) (2021-)

      (3) The RC aims to…

      • be a platform for exchange in pd-research
      • initiate and conduct pd-research
      • train the pd-trainers (& ourselves) in research
      • integrate research in pd-training
      • link pd research with research in related fields, e.g. counselling, psychotherapy, psychology, education
      • support publishing of pd research
      • present pd research at international conferences


      RC Meeting in Leipzig:
      Research for a magic profession? Scientific reasoning in psychodrama training and practice. In Leipzig, we were more than thirty people present with some more guests on Friday during the presentation of the keynote speakers. We welcomed Prof. Dr. Bernhard Strauss (Universitätsklinikum Jena), who talked about “Current trends in (group) psychotherapy research” and we discussed questions and challenges we are facing in psychodrama research. Furthermore, our psychodrama colleague Dr. Reinhard T. Krüger from the Moreno-Institute Edenkoben/ Überlingen demonstrated and discussed the topic “Monodrama”. In addition, Prof. Dr. Konrad Schnabel from the International Psychoanalytic University Berlin has presented a pilot study about “Psychodrama and wise interventions”. Apart from the keynote speakers, we heard about ongoing research projects from our psychodrama colleagues.  I want to express my thanks to the LOC – Katja Kolmorgen, Anett Richter-Nowak and Uwe Novak from the Surplus psychodrama training Institute in Leipzig for their excellent work in hosting our meeting.
      RC Meeting and Conference in Padova “From Resilience to Wellbeing – Promoting Health through Psychodrama and Action Methods” was co-organized by the University of Padova and the FEPTO Research committee. In total, more than one hundred people participated in the conference, 46 FEPTO colleagues from 17 European and Mediterranean countries. Key note speakers came from the US, Israel, Greece and Italy. We are now finishing the report for the Padova meeting. The report will be sent out and uploaded on the website.
      Many thanks for the invitation and the hard work to organize this conference go to Prof. Ines Testoni and Francesca Alemanno from the interdisciplinary Department of Philosophies, Sociology, Education and Applied Psychology (FISPPA) of the University of Padova.
      The next RC Meeting will take place at the Sigmund Freud University (SFU) in Vienna. “Beyond Numbers and Words. Measuring and understanding Psychodrama”. LOC will consist of Susanne Schulze and Babsi Geml. A call for contributions and an invitation was sent to our colleagues and announced in the FEPTO Newsletter. Practitioners, trainers and trainees in psychodrama are invited to take part.

      After Vienna our next RC meeting will take place in Istanbul from 5-8 of March 2020.

      It is very encouraging to see that every year more researchers and practitioners in psychodrama are getting involved in research activities and by that contributing to a common research culture in our professional field. We will continue to promote research encounters and to provide support for research in psychodrama.
      IAGP Research conference in Thessaloniki: two panels will be held by participants of the FEPTO RC.
      International PD Journal (supplements of ZPS): One Journal edition on psychodrama research is planned for 2020. A call for papers was sent out and published in the Newsletter. A further issue of the Journal is planned for 2021 on psychodrama practice, training and research.

    1. Council members shall be elected for a three (3) years´ term.
    2. Decrease the number of the Council members from ten (10) to eight (8) persons: voting for 7 members in the council: 11 yes; voting for 8 members in the council: 69 yes
    3. Remuneration of part of the AM registration fees for the council members: President and vice-president will continue receiving 600 each per year and It will be added up to 300 euros for each council member for covering AM expenses (excluding president and vice-president). Voting: yes 75; abstention 3; No 0

    Discussion and Approval of the Budget 2019: Voting: yes 81, no 0, abstention 3

    Discussion about how to finance allowance for council members, in order not to pay their AM contribution, as they have to be there and are working very hard for FEPTO. Creative proposal by Agnes Dudler members who come to the AM pay €100 less than members who don’t come to the AM meeting, as we’re all working for FEPTO and we miss our income.
    Proposal Peter Haworth: request not to vote about financial issues before result votes that impede on the budget are in.

  14. Update on the constitution changing by Fred Dorn
    Necessity of Constitution Changing and Actualization: The foundation of FEPTO leads back to the year of 1992 – then named first ISCOPE later on ESCOPE (European Study and Co-ordination of Psychodrama-Education) and, finally in 1996, FEPTO in Belgium as an international non-profit organization according to Belgian law. The then agreed and adopted Constitution concedes that “a number of terms contained in it may, in the future, require more precise definition” (Preamble). Now, more than 25 years later, considering the history and changing in European society since then and the growth of FEPTO as well (about 60 member-institutions out of 27 countries) it is really necessary not only to find “more precise definition” of terms, but also to redefine and to define the global aims, purpose and concrete goals. Furthermore, the usability and practicability of the constitution have to be reconsidered and adapted to the actual needs, thus to enable our organization to be an active and respected partner on European stage contributing to the welfare of European society by the development of Psychodrama in training, research and practice

    • Global aims

    The preamble of a constitution has to render account of the global aims to which the organization with all its members and activities is committed to. It thus describes the political and social position of the organization, the way it wants to participate in political and social life and to contribute to the well-being and well functioning of society. The suggested new wording of the Preamble is a try to express this need.

    • Purposes

    Concerning the purposes the geographical and hence the political sphere and limitations of acting have to be clearly defined – what we tried. Maybe more stress should be laid on the development of psychodrama-practice.

    • Usability and Practicability

    There is a difference between usability and practicability. Usability means how to make use of the constitution as a tool, thus to define:

    • The location of the association
    • The relationship between members and institutional bodies (GA, Council)
    • Decision Making in accordance with democratic rules
    • The term of office of the Council
    • Number of Council members and their responsibilities
    • Regulation of voting procedures
    • Responsibility for the organization in total.

    According to this, the following topics have to be dealt with and decided in the constitution, to make it slim and supple, easily to be handled:

    • Art. 3 Membership: The membership issue is a very sensitive question that should be changed in accordance to actual needs and the development of the organization. Hence we propose to regulate the items of Art. 3.1 – 4 in the by-laws.
    • Art. 5 Council: The term and the number of Council members are crucial for the well functioning of the Council. There are different opinions how long the term of the Council should last and of how many members the Council should at least consist. The proposed regulation allows flexibility but of course it has to be discussed and decided.
    • Art. 9 Voting: This article touches the sensitive difference between individual members (especially founding members) and institutional members. A clear regulation will have to be found in the by-laws as we suggest.
    • Art. 11 Subscriptions: Additionally to the regulation foreseen by the Constitution we suggest, that the annual fee’s arrangement should be fixed in the by-laws.

    On the other hand practicability concerns all issues that should not be regulated in the Constitution, but in by-laws, thus to enable the GA as well as the Council to adapt their activities to actual needs to be decided upon easily by the GA or the Council without touching and changing the Constitution – which in such cases requires a qualified majority of 2/3 of its members (Art. 10). To these practical issues belong:

    • Financial affairs: fixing and changing of membership fees, budgeting, regulation of scholarships etc.
    • Rules of procedure for the Council and the GA
    • Defining and adapting the conditions of institutional and personal membership within FEPTO
    • The organization and developing of networking – enjoying the possibilities digitization offers
    • The conditions of application for financial support of projects in the name of or with the support of FEPTO, clearly defined and budgeted by the responsible organizers.

    Obviously and consequently, we put many regulations to be met into the by-laws: Art. 3, 5,7,9,11.
    Hence we shall have to work in two steps:

    • Work on the constitution

    The changing and the adaption of the constitution to actual needs has to be a democratic process initiated by the Council at the GA, filled with life by the members and put into effect by the GA after a procedure of discussion and acceptance. The organization of this procedure will be the task of the new council to be elected at Tallinn. Possibly this – and maybe as well the work on the by-laws – may require the support and aid of lawyers.

    As well by-laws will have to be worked out. Maybe it is too much a challenge to organize this procedure parallel, but anyway, it has to be thought of and kept in mind.

  16. Update on Erasmus+ Projects by Judith Teszáry and Reijo Kauppila
    a. Sociodrama Performers 2
    (Judith Teszáry)

    • We have started this EU project to developing sociodrama in different fields.
    • Partner organisations in the project are: FEPTO; The Hungarian Psychodrama Association (MPE), the coordinator of the project; The Swedish Association of Psychodramatists (SPA); The Portuguese Society of Psychodrama (SPP); Birmingham Institute for Psychodrama (BIP); NOS Portuguese social organisation; Hungarian Detention home (Youth prison) (EMMI).
    • Members of the FEPTO staff: Judith Teszáry coordinator
    • Nikolaos Takis, Chantal Neve-Hanquet, Melinda Ashley Meyer, Irina Stefanescu.
    • The aim of the project is to create a sociodrama curriculum for the Hungarian PD Association; contribute to the creation of a European Sociodrama training standard; teach sociodrama for youth workers; write a field specific textbook for youth workers; edit an international book in sociodrama; disseminate the method in psychodrama training institutes/organisations, conferences, workshops.
    • FEPTO as member organisation has been represented in first two events by Judith Teszáry and Jana Damjanov so far and will continue to do so in each events involving different staff members. Irina Stefanescu will participate at the meeting (M2) in Birmingham.
    • In this project there are Meetings (M) for the coordinators of the partner organisations and Trainings © for all participants.
    • 8 working groups dealing with different tasks involved in the project:
    • wg1– Project management (Hungarian staff),
    • wg2 – International meetings coordination;
    • wg3 – Dissemination group, creation of homepage, Facebook sight, logo;
    • wg4 – European standard (FEPTO staff is active in this working group;
    • wg5 – Institution specific issues,
    • wg6 – Detention home specifics;
    • wg7– Method and curriculum;
    • wg8 – International textbook. FEPTO staff is active in creation of this textbook.
    • After each training occasion there is an evaluation & reflection meeting to analyse the benefit of the 5 days trainings, what can be used in a sociodrama curriculum and in the work of a standardisation of the method. An editorial board has been built to prepare the International Sociodrama book.
    • The first training event was carried out by the British team led by Di Adderley (BIP). The method they use is based in most parts on the Australian New-Zealand model. Role exploration, role taking, role playing and role training. The difference between sociodrama-psychodrama and action methods was discussed. Exploration of leadership in each role one take in a play.
    • The next training days (C2) will be in Portugal, where the Portuguese Psychodrama Association will teach their way of doing and teaching sociodrama.
    • The third training event (C3) is a cooperation between FEPTO trainers and the Swedish trainers in Stockholm presenting their way of doing sociodrama concerning marginalised youth, refugees, new comers’ integration in Sweden.
    • After the training events we take on the writing of the above mentioned material: international textbook, field specific use of sdr, method and curriculum, proposal for standardisation, so called intellectual output of the project.
    • At the AM there will be a small group work on the topic Sociodrama to broader the area of Moreno’s methods. I hope many of you who are using sociodrama will come and contribute with your experience to the discussion.
