The ECNP Congress in Munich came to a close in October, bringing together researchers, clinicians and mental health professionals from across the world to exchange knowledge and explore the latest developments in mental health research and care. EUFAMI was delighted to be part of this important gathering and would like to thank everyone who visited our booth throughout the week.
While the Congress focused on scientific advances and innovation, EUFAMI brought an equally important perspective to the conversation: the lived experience of families and carers affected by severe mental illness. Our participation was an opportunity to highlight the importance of ensuring that scientific progress goes hand in hand with a better understanding of the everyday realities of those living with different mental health conditions and those supporting them.
We were pleased to connect with so many visitors, exchange ideas and raise awareness of EUFAMI's work in advocating for families and carers across Europe. These conversations reinforced the importance of collaboration between the scientific community, healthcare professionals, people with lived experience and their families.
We look forward to continuing these conversations and to seeing you at the next ECNP Congress in Barcelona, Spain in September 2027.
