[spectre] MADNESS: Fighting for Justice in Mental Health - Nov. 25-27, Berlin

[Tatiana Bazzichelli]

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. Concept by Tatiana
Bazzichelli & Elena Veljanovska. Curated by Elena Veljanovska. Workshops
curated by Nada Bakr.
