Susann Heenen-Wolff, Professor, Psychological Sciences Research Institute, Belgium

For almost 45 years, the experiences of children hidden during World  War I were considered to be of little importance, particularly with respect to what had taken place in the concentration camps. Their very history was ignored.  It was only at the end of the 1980s that these experience began to be thought of as potentially traumatic. Dr Wolff will illuminate the impacts of this early trauma, based on 60 accounts of these children and her psychoanalytically-oriented work.
