Following the resounding success of the pre-marital literacy fireside chat with undergraduates in January, I’ll be returning to NUS College in July to moderate a panel on marital literacy for alums of the college.
Given how Singapore is seeing falling marriage rates alongside concerns about family formation and fertility, marital literacy – the knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes couples need to nurture and sustain lasting and fulfilling marriages – is more crucial than ever.
I’ll be joined by panellists and fellow alums Andrea Tan (Economics + USP ‘03), Theresa Pong (Psychology & Statistics ‘97) and Bozy Lu (Law & Psychology + Yale-NUS ‘19), where we’ll explore how emotional awareness, relational habits and everyday practices of care shape our relationships, both before and during marriage.
Whether you’re single, partnered, married or divorced, this open dialogue offers a safe space for everyone.
