It has long been the ethos, if not the ethic, of psychology to work via its various iterations and specialties to the betterment of individuals, groups and areas. Professional service is an important aspect of a psychologist’s identity. It is one of the “big three” (teaching, research, service) that are integral to the activities of colleagues, and is emphasized as a core value in founding documents such as the American Psychological Association’s mission (“to advance the creation, communication and application of psychological knowledge to benefit society and improve people’s lives”), vision (e.g., “…a global partner… to facilitate the resolution of personal, societal and global challenges in diverse, multicultural and international contexts”), and ethical standards (e.g., for “Justice,” “Respect for People’s Rights and Dignities,” and “giving psychology away/pro bono”).
This presentation will demonstrate how to translate service into concrete international action. Beginning with examples of specific international service needs and opportunities, at home and abroad, the presentation will highlight people, programs, and places where the vibrant potential for global service is very real and present. For current and future psychologists as well as colleagues in different areas interested in “making a difference in the world,” this talk offers a very pragmatic how-to in developing skills, identifying partners, and managing the logistics and practicalities of international service within a psychology career.

Setting Goals by Sarah Buerger & Dr Chris StoutDr. Chris Stout
There are lots of planners, systems, seminars, and books to help achieve goals, get organized, and plan. But Meaningful Productivity is the first comprehensive approach for one’s LIFE – not just work or home. It is based on an integrative philosophy of living that has evolved and been acid-tested in the real world by its originator. It is designed to be specifically tailored to your needs, goals, and ambitions.
Meaningful Productivity is designed to be simple and unencumbered. It is basically a hybrid of a scheduling system/planner with a to-do list. Its simplicity is its power. It is my goal to get Meaningful Productivity out to the masses, via amazon so it is as affordable as it is easy to use. I am not too concerned with my copyright, other than you recognize my authorship and perhaps may wish to use my consultative services or purchase other materials, via DrChrisStout.com.
My focus is on life significance. This significance is defined via achievement with satisfaction. Significance wins out over success. Meaning and individualized importance are drivers. Sure, sometimes these result in outward reward of status, celebrity, or wealth, but these are side-effects, not ends. This philosophy is best stated in one of my mottos: “Do important things.”
I feel the accomplished life is ongoing, not an endpoint. Accomplishment should occur across the life span. Life thus needs a design. Certainly randomness has its place, and entropy can make for an enjoyable calamity, but a life left to be “designed” by chance is too much at risk of being wasted.
Some choose to simplify their lives. And this has become quite popular as of late. I support this philosophy with clarification: to simplify is to be unencumbered from the unnecessary, not to sacrifice needs and self-defined reasonable wants.
It is my philosophy to support high-achievement over over-achievement. Over-achievers tend to be more driven by obtaining external trappings resultant from achievement rather than inherent drive by the work itself. These are the individuals who risk burn out they are those who feel heavy work involvement is expected by a superior (not the result of an “internal” motivation); or feel a need to perform for others; or feel pride in external/material attainment over intrinsic satisfaction in the work itself; and then they reach a point in mid- to late-career that results in the “is this all there is?” phenomenon.

Global Health Film Club
The Film Club provides unique venue to view a film as a group and then follow with conversation and methods to address the issues. The film serves as vehicle to learn about a specific humanitarian issue.
Some of you may be familiar with the concept behind “The 100 Ton Club.” It’s basically lifting 100 tons, yes, 200,000 pounds, in a day’s time.
If you know some of my background, you may know that I like to take on various (odd) physical challenges—running marathons and ultras, racing cycling criteriums, summer biathlons, cross-country ski races, Warrior Dashes and other obstacle races, diving the Blue Hole, the Great Barrier Reef, and with sharks, climbing 3 of the World’s Seven Summits, etc. You may not know that I grew up poor, obese (particularly a bummer when you consider my last name), had orthopedic issues, etcetera—woe was me.
You also likely know that I run a non-profit Center for Global Initiatives and often pair some physical challenge as a fundraiser for our work in Tanzania.
So, by my 58th birthday (8 May) I hope to join-the-Club and lift 100 tons, but as somewhat of making this an endurance challenge as well, I hope to do it in 3 hours.
Gulp…
If you’d like to support this crazy challenge for our friends in Tanzania, please do: http://centerforglobalinitiatives.org/donateNow.cfm
Or, if you’re so inclined, you may want to take on your own challenge (maybe this one too?) and support the Center’s work.
Thanks for any help you can lend…!
Chris
The emerging healthcare environment requires expanded patient access while delivering optimal outcomes and cost. As healthcare moves form a fee for service model to alternative delivery and payment models, there are opportunities for physical therapy to revolutionize the delivery of musculoskeletal medicine. Physical therapists are uniquely qualified to spearhead musculoskeletal care through direct access with the potential to improve patient satisfaction and outcomes while limiting unneeded medical care. While this model has been described in the military, there are few descriptions of this PT First approach in the private payer arena. This session will provide the attendee with a multifaceted perspective on the impact of physical therapy in emerging, collaborative healthcare models. Approaches to payers and employers with the business implications will be presented that influence these new models. Key strategies to implement a scalable, best practice model will be discussed including the logistical challenges and corollary solutions in the private arena. We will discus our experience implementing novel delivery models for management of neck, back, shoulder and knee pain. The session will deliver practical solutions to the challenges of implementing, assessing, and adapting a theoretical construct to a working viable program. Finally, the session will discuss how the use of a a large Patient Outcomes Registry and analysis of “big data” can drive best practice and inform development of the program.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Means and Methods of Humanitarian Intervention
1. Chris E. Stout
Core Faculty, International Psychology, TCSPP
Founding Director, Center for Global Initiatives
Means and Methods of
Humanitarian Intervention
2. Who is in the audience today?
• Practicing Psychologist?
• Academic?
• Grad Student?
• Other?
3. I am presuming that since you are here,
you are interested in humanitarian
work, so I would like give an overview
of:
ways,
tools, and
examples in which to do so.
4. In this context of this talk, I consider
my work an overlapping of psychology,
public health, human rights, global
health, humanitarian intervention, and
technology—all being brought to bear
in helping others in need.
5. Also, in the context of this type of
work, we always need to be vigilant as
to our hubris and the seductive “West-
Knows-Best” parental perspective.
15. While the academic side was important
(and great), I wanted to go into the
field.
On my first international medical
mission, I saw what the diseases of
poverty look like…
21. While we work to treat the ill, proven prevention
strategies include:
Economic development

60. I was doing an increasing
amount of medical mission
work and being asked to
grow my involvement
(“Accidental”
Humanitarian)
My mentor said “you need to
start a 501(c)3.”
61. I want to tell you about my experience
with starting a non-profit,
the big problem we experienced,
and the pivot… we made…
62. Our pivot was to focus on one key project
and share what we had learned building
CGI to help others accelerate and reduce
the friction in doing humanitarian work.
In other words, to open-source
humanitarian intervention.!
63. The basic idea is that doing good work and
helping others shouldn’t be so hard…
64. We found that those folks
generally broke into two
categories:
• Those wanting to start their own non-
profit/NGO, so we coach and teach how-
to, and
• Those just wanting to do the work or a
project, so we help and act as a fiscal
intermediary.
65. Regardless of which camp you are
in, the following tools may be of
interest, and they all are freely
available…

67. Boston Children's Hospital created HealthMap
Real-time intelligence on
Infectious diseases from various data sources
74. We also produced two books so far,
with royalties going to support the
Center as well as support our mission.
75. We developed a podcast to highlight
interesting people that all have a
humanitarian aspect to their lives or
work.
76. • Huruma Designated Hospital and Kibosho Hospital deals with TB,
pneumonia, immunosuppression, diabetes, accidents/injuries,
hypertension, and one season, a particularly bad malaria epidemic.
• We were able to procure the proper medications needed, and at
follow-up, we learned that our partners had been able to treat and
thus help prevent over 4,100 people from dying of malaria.
• Twenty-eight percent of those infected were children under the age
of five — an even more vulnerable group.
• When calculating the cost, it averaged out to...
• 73 cents a life.
