Building on the success of previous Congresses held in Berlin, Washington and Melbourne, the Congress will attract in excess of 1000 psychiatrists, psychologists, mental health workers, womens health providers, researchers, policy makers and bureaucrats from across the globe.
The scientific program will explore the psychosocial, economic and cultural
contexts of women's mental health as well as the genetic, cellular, neural,
hormonal, pharmacologic and other basic science aspects. Clinicians of all
disciplines including psychiatry, psychology, obstetrics, gynaecology, family healthcare, social work, nursing and community health will contribute their
knowledge on best practices and innovative developments to improve women's
mental health across the lifespan.
