Psychiatry, Mental Health And A Shared Professional Culture - An Eu...

In the European context of vocational crisis in the psychiatric and mental health professions, structural changes are taking place, with direct consequences on training and professional practices in care and psychosocial support, both within and outside psychiatric hospitals. Thanks to a tutor-training curriculum in the framework of the TuTo+ programme, co-financed by the European Union and its Erasmus+ strategic partnerships programme, 2019-2021, the partners from six European countries have strengthened the previous TuTo programme for the exchange of good practices. This programme reaches out to more than ten European countries with the participation of 100 young professionals. How do you develop a European mentoring programme in the mental health sector, based on a reflective pedagogy to build a shared culture ? How did the partners, professionals, teachers and researchers get involved ? How did they navigate different organisational structures across Europe and varied trajectories ? Based on the concrete and innovative example of the TuTo+ programme, this book takes a cross-disciplinary look at these issues. It brings together analytical texts, studies and invigorating experiences that illustrate the achievements and the commitment of professionals from different European countries in a unifying approach.
