Event Information
Overview
Join the Volunteering and International Psychiatry Special Interest Group (VIPSIG) and the Transcultural Special Interest Group (TSIG) for an inspiring day exploring how psychiatry transcends borders. Hear from clinicians working on the ground in Gaza, Syria and Zambia, and discover how global experiences can transform local practice.
Expect thought-provoking discussions, powerful stories, and practical insights into:
- Delivering care in conflict and resource-limited settings
- How culture and context can shape mental health
- Fostering care that is more inclusive and culturally sensitive
- Embedding cultural and spiritual understanding into psychiatric practice
- Building meaningful global collaborations and volunteering opportunities
Whether you’re driven by professional growth or global impact, this is a rare chance to reconnect with the heart of psychiatry — compassion across cultures. Reserve your place and be part of the conversation shaping the future of global mental health.
