The 5th Mental Health Conference, themed “Access to Mental Health Care”, is organized by Jue Jue’s Safe Space and the Foundation for Education and Development. This two-day international conference aims to make mental health services more accessible, sustainable, and systematically implemented across all levels, from individuals to the national stage. The 2026 event will specifically focus on addressing mental health challenges in conflict-affected regions, supporting internally displaced persons (IDPs), and navigating areas with limited resources where services are currently out of reach. As with previous years, the conference will feature a holistic range of mental health topics, bringing together international mental health experts, influential community leaders, and representatives from Community-Based Organizations (CBOs).
The conference discussions are structured into three key levels:
Level 1 focuses on enhancing personal well-being (Level up your individual practices)
Level 2 emphasizes collective support (Fostering Collaboration Through Community Practices)
Level 3 addresses national and global integration (Closing the gap in local, national, and global practices).
Scheduled over one and a half days, the event is divided into three main segments. You can explore the specific topics and agenda for each segment by clicking on the images provided below.
