    Description

    Mental health is now seen as a human rights issue by both the United Nations and the World Health Organisation. In particular, tackling mental health-related stigma is seen as a priority for improving mental health globally. In recent decades the concept of 'personal recovery' and the development of recovery-oriented mental health practice have been important initiatives for addressing stigma and improving mental health care in Australia and internationally. The purpose of this webinar is to provide an outline of human rights issues surrounding stigma and how these are being addressed through recovery-oriented mental health care. Basic principles of recovery-oriented mental health care will also be covered. 

    The online format will include opportunities for discussion and questions.
