Mental Health for All (#75): Breaking Barriers - 'Mad Activism', Power Structures & Lived Experience

Before lived experience experts were known as key to mental health research and policy, and before there was greater general awareness of what “Public and Patient Involvement” / service users / Lived Experience experts can contribute, mad activists movements and other such survivor groups were fighting for recognition and shared power in decision making. These groups have been key in shaping the landscape for lived experience, but sometimes their methods and language are contested as "controversial". In this webinar, we reflected on these movements and how they helped shape “expertise by experience” as we know it. We explored the role of lived experience in shaping the future of mental health policy, practice, science and advocacy, as well as what we need to understand to make this future a reality.
