About this Event

Behind every screen is a human story.
Grief and loss go beyond losing a loved one. They can mean losing a job, a relationship, a treasured possession, a sense of belonging, or the life we once knew. For some, it is leaving behind family and home; for others, it is watching familiar ways of working and connecting change in an increasingly AI-driven world.
But do we always recognise these experiences as grief? And do we give ourselves permission to talk about them?
Join us for an interactive workshop exploring the many faces of grief and loss, creating space for honest conversations, shared experiences and meaningful human connection.
Because behind every screen is a human story.
Who Should Attend?
Anyone working, studying or involved in the technology and cybersecurity community, or anyone interested in understanding grief, loss, change and the importance of human connection.


No personal disclosure is required. Participants are welcome to listen, reflect and contribute at their own comfort level.
