The objective of the RAMHHE conference is to promote an anti-stigma and inclusive day, where people can express their views and perceptions of mental health through collective dialogue.

The aims of the RAMHHE conference are to provide a social learning space that will encourage collaborative discussions and to inform universities of the need to involve the student voice in the development of campaigns and awareness initiatives for mental health.

Information from the conference will provide an interdisciplinary insight into how to raise awareness of mental health in higher education.

This event seeks to promote the student voice in raising awareness fo mental health in higher education. Therefore, you are invited to submit a mental health campaign poster. The three winning posters will be used to support mental health promotion campaign on campus.
