The Special Interest Group for Mental Health would like to invite UK educators, from all disciplines, who teach ‘mental health’ (in academic and practice settings), to an event at the Centre of Excellence in Interdisciplinary Mental Health, University of Birmingham on, 14th December, 2009, 10am to 4pm.
To date, there has been no UK wide, cross disciplinary special interest group providing a regular opportunity for educators to meet face to face - with a view to exploring common issues and challenges, sharing resources and influencing policy and practice in the field of mental health. Arguably, this has hampered educators’ capacity to shape and respond to new developments.
The Mental Health in Higher Education project (mhhe) aims to increase opportunities for networking and the sharing of approaches to learning and teaching about mental health across the disciplines in UK higher education. The Health Sciences and Practice Subject Centre, along with four other subject centres of the Higher Education Academy, developed and continue to support mhhe.
Together, we are looking for colleagues with an interest in sharing approaches and engaging in debate about educational practice and the implications of policy developments for learning and teaching about mental health.
