The formation of the IKEN-MH was jointly envisioned by the MHCC and the International Initiative for Mental Health Leadership (IIMHL), to increase the capacity for effective knowledge exchange in mental health by connecting people, ideas, and resources on a global level.
Save the Date!
The IKEN-MH will hold its inaugural in-person meeting on July 9-10, 2012 in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada. The objectives of the inaugural meeting are:
- To build research, practice, and policy partnerships in the area of knowledge exchange;
- To explore best and promising knowledge exchange practices within the mental health and substance use context;
- To promote awareness of, and interest in, existing peer-reviewed journals and professional development opportunities committed to knowledge exchange;
- To increase interest in, research on, and evaluation of the innovative knowledge exchange approaches to mental health and substance use;
- To better integrate people with lived experience and family care givers into the KE process
