This hybrid symposium event will include a selection of short presentations from a range of fantastic national and international speakers, sharing their work and experiences. We will be discussing the following:
- What is a Recovery College?
- How do they promote social inclusion and transform mental health care?
- How can Universities play a role?
- What are the benefits and opportunities for a Recovery College within a university context?
The event brings together audience members from multiple local organisations working in mental health, education and research, as well as staff and students of La Trobe University. We welcome anyone interested in learning more about and celebrating Recovery Colleges so far, and imagining a vision for the future. We hope it will be an informative and interactive event, with a chance to network over some delicious afternoon tea!

There will be an alternative online Zoom link that will be circulated closer to the event.
