Dear all, I would like to share some information about our next conference and invite you to join it in person in Berlin or on streaming (as usual, we will have a chat to get questions from the remote audience and it would be great to see you there!).
MADNESS: Fighting for Justice in Mental Health - Nov. 25-27, 2002 Kunstquartier Bethanien, Berlin & on streaming https://www.disruptionlab.org/madness What does it mean to have a just mental health care system and who has access to it? Who decides who is labelled as mad? The international conference MADNESS: Fighting for Justice in Mental Health investigates systems of mental health care and support, focusing on prevailing discourses and practices, biases and inequality. It is exploring the possibilities of a mental health system which puts human rights and justice in the centre of its practice. The conference introduces the perspectives of scientists, human rights and social justice activists, artists, doctors and practitioners as well as those closely affected – the people living with mental illness, through keynotes, panels, performance, film screening, workshops and meetups. 28th conference of the Disruption Network Lab.
