The symposium is open to all health professionals and students interested in this topic. This year’s symposium will focus on mental health issues regarding refugees in Africa and Asia. As long as Europe was not faced with mass migration, it closed its eyes to the situation and problems of refugees in countries like Syria, Colombia, Iraq, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, South Sudan, Pakistan, Nigeria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Kenya, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Thailand and others. Not only refugees in Africa and Asia but also most of the local population receive hardly any appropriate treatment for mental disorders. Therefore, we shall also discuss mental health service development in low-income countries. th You are cordially invited to participate in the 8 International Symposium “Global Mental Health – Mental Health in Developing Countries”. We are also planning a poster session if you want to present a poster which fits the topic of the symposium. Please submit your proposal by the th 30 of September 2016 to Mrs Lehmann.
