Abstract
“Truth is a pathless land” – Jiddu Krishnamurti
Truth and oppression are pivotal concepts to Critical Community Psychology. Within the discipline(s), they are used, defined, and applied to explore the multifaceted realities of lived experiences, especially of those at the margins. However, little is challenged about the concepts themselves and their use across and beyond all disciplines. In this space we will collectively explore these concepts in an interactive and participatory way, after a short introduction. We will try to understand the present world by the means of unity of knowledge, which is the aim of Transdisciplinarity. Everyone is welcome to actively join and build together the transdisciplinary patchwork of truth and oppression, starting from their own background.
