RAK International Psychiatry Congress

One in four people in the world will be affected by mental or neurological disorders at some point in their lives. Around 450 million people currently suffer from such conditions, placing mental disorders among the leading causes of ill-health and disability worldwide. Nearly two-thirds of people with a known mental disorder never seek help from a health professional. Stigma, discrimination and neglect prevent care and treatment from reaching people with mental disorders, says the World Health Organization (WHO). Therefore, the RAK International Psychiatry Congress is scheduled during 19 – 20 April 2019, RAK, UAE, with the theme "Fighting the Stigma”. 

The RAK International Psychiatry Congress is the leading platform dedicated to Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Psychotherapists, and Mental Health experts, to discuss the future of the psychiatry in the region and to exchange ideas about the best practices in the field.

The RAK International Psychiatry Congress will bring together a team of outstanding regional and international expert faculty members for two days of cutting edge medical education sessions focused on latest advances and best practices in the field of mental health across a broad scale of mental disorders.
The program will include a wide range of topics with keynotes, interactive panel discussions, workshops and posters presentations that will give you the opportunity to learn from the experts’ recent research achievement, powerful experiences and share the latest advances in the diagnosis and management of all mental disorders for improving the quality of life for patients with mental health issues.
