1 May 2024. We are happy to announce that Prof. Celia Sales, one of the leading minds behind the BootStRaP project, will be sharing invaluable insights on co-creation in mental health research! She is a panelist at a webinar, jointly organized by 7 huge EU Horizon Europe projects on ‘Mental Health in Times of Change’. This event is part of the European Mental Health Week celebration happening from 13-19 May 2024.
This webinar will delve into fresh and first-hand experiences involving practitioners and people with lived experience as co-researchers/co-creators. Specifically, the discussion will centre on the context of mental health interventions for various European populations. This webinar aims to provide a platform to explore both the advantages and challenges that co-creators face and how we can overcome these barriers.
