Key Streams

This stream explores how connections between disciplines, professions, communities and different forms of knowledge can deepen our understanding of moral injury.

Submissions may examine emerging research, conceptual and theoretical developments, interdisciplinary collaboration, lived and living experience, relationships, communities, families, culture, spirituality, or other perspectives that illuminate how moral injury is experienced, understood and addressed.

This stream focuses on how individuals, communities and organisations respond to moral injury and accompany those affected by it.

Submissions may address clinical and therapeutic interventions, chaplaincy and spiritual care, peer and community support, prevention and early intervention, trauma-informed practice, moral repair, rehabilitation, organisational responses, or innovative models of care.

This stream looks beyond recognising moral injury to consider how individuals, organisations and communities can create conditions that support moral agency, meaning, hope and flourishing.

Submissions may explore leadership, ethics, organisational culture, policy, education and training, prevention, resilience, meaning-making, spirituality, post-traumatic growth, moral repair, or emerging directions for research and practice.

The three streams are intentionally interconnected. Authors are encouraged to nominate the stream that most closely reflects the primary focus of their submission; however, contributions that cross disciplinary or thematic boundaries are particularly welcome.

Whether your work is grounded in research, clinical practice, pastoral and spiritual care, leadership, policy, education, community practice, or lived and living experience, ANZMIC 2027 provides a forum to share knowledge, challenge assumptions, build connections, show compassion, and purposefully engage with the evolving field of moral injury.

Understanding moral injury. Advancing moral repair. Transforming lives through connection, compassion and purpose.
