5th Mental Health Dialogues
Breaking Barriers: Tackling Mental Health Stigma Through E-Inclusion
We (RECONNECTED project) will be hosting the next Mental Health Dialogues webinar, which is scheduled for 7th of October at 11-12.30 CET under the topic: Breaking Barriers: Tackling Mental Health Stigma Through E-Inclusion.

This webinar will focus on how digital mental health solutions can reduce stigma among vulnerable populations. As Mental Health Awareness Day 2025 emphasizes global solidarity and inclusion, this session aligns with this focus by exploring how technology can either reduce (or exacerbate) mental health stigma. The webinar will explore how digital mental health solutions can challenge stigma among vulnerable populations in Europe.
The Mental Health Dialogues webinar series is a collaborative initiative organized alongside our sister projects the seven projects funded in the same call. This series covers current issues within mental health and explores innovative solutions being developed across Europe.
