Ideally, participants are attending as part of an organisational commitment, however, individuals are also welcome to apply. Individuals coming into this training are expected to bring a degree of openness, curiosity, and vulnerability, as it involves a deep exploration into history of future of the politics and ethics of mental health care and an exploration of the larger system and the tensions that exist within it. As part of the training, trainees will engage in deep inner reflections and complete course requirements, in addition to partaking in experiential activities and roleplays.
