Partnering for Change summary now available

Our recent symposium 'Partnering for change: Towards a new community model for mental health' brought together over 200 consumers, carers, families, friends and supporters, service providers, peak and professional bodies and government representatives for two days of keynotes, panels and interactive sessions. 

Attendees heard from sector leaders and people with lived experience. They shared knowledge and explored what the new community-based model of care — as recommended by the Royal Commission into Victoria's Mental Health System — could look like in Victoria.

We've now released our summary document capturing the key themes and ideas explored during the event. The document features the main messages from speakers and panellists and provides copies of the slideshows from selected sessions.

Check it out here.

The next event in the series, Learning from Adversity, will be a free webinar on Tuesday 30 November 2021. It will explore what have we learnt from the events of the past 18 months —  from Black Summer to COVID-19 — and how can we ensure we have a mental health system that can adapt and respond to critical events. 

Keep an eye on our conferences website for further details on this and our past events.
