EPR National Awareness Raising Event on Mental Health in Employment
On June 21st EPR organised together with the Dutch International Mental Health Hub a National Awareness Raising Event in Amersfoort, the Netherlands. The topic was mental health in employment, and in particular ways to support the mental wellbeing of professionals delivering services to people with mental health issues or a disability. The event brought together speakers from international and European organisations, such as the WHO and the European Commission, as well as EPR members INTRAS Foundation and Cedar Foundation (both members of EPR Mental Health Working Group), and Dutch associations, to discuss this increasingly important topic, address its challenges and exchange best practices and innovative solutions. The event also touched upon the Ukrainian crisis, with the presentation of two Ukrainian psychologists who shared their personal experiences in providing mental health support to refugees fleeing the war.
The recording of this event and the presentations are available for EPR members. If you wish to access it, please contact Giada Venier here.
