EMPOWERMENT

Empowering people with lived experience to ensure meaningful involvement in research, policy, services, stigma reduction, and leadership.
The most significant space where empowerment happens is amongst peers - learning from each other and being supported by our peers.

Virtual Community

Our Executive and Sub-Committees are on WhatsApp groups where members share their work and knowledge, exchange information and have the opportunity to learn from each other's different country contexts. The WhatsApp groups prove to be a valuable platform to empower our lived experience representatives.

Peer Support

Our virtual platforms is a space where we are able to support each other through our own lived experiences, and this form of peer support encourages empowerment.

Inclusion and Collaboration

Our focus areas and activities is guided by our lived experience representatives, who identify key issues that they believe is relevant and critical to address, either at local or global levels, or both.
