Reports of the recent HNTPO meeting and conference

In january 2008 HealthNet TPO Burundi organized a regional conference on mental health in cooperation with the Burundian Ministry of Public Health. In the same week HealthNet TPO also organized a regional meeting with the psychosocial projects of HealthNet TPO in Africa. Elsewhere on this website a report with photo's can be found. Two of the participants at the meetings have written a review of the meeting for a mental health journal. These reports are interesting and stimulating  personal reflections. They are written on a personal basis and do thus not necessarily reflect the views of HealthNet TPO.

Amy Besamusca-Ekelschot, a dutch psychiatrist and health administrator wrote a review of the meetings for the Dutch language journal Maandblad Geestelijke volksgezondheid (www.mgv.nl)
