The fully online conference will consider how the social determinants of our health; the places where we live, work, learn and play; have been irrevocably impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and a range of extreme, climate-related weather events.
The Conference looks at how our collective and individual experiences over recent years have particularly affected metal health service providers and their clients.
Attendance is free for Australian mental health professionals, however places are limited.
