This Oppressive System & our Mental Health (France)
1 May 2022 - 8:00 am - 15 May 2022 - 11:30 pm
About the Event
This six-day summer camp will consist of insightful workshops and discussions exploring the topic of mental health in all of its political relevance. We will aim to unravel how such issues disproportionally affect oppressed individuals and communities as well as the activists fighting against the systems of oppression. We will also tackle other issues such as freedom of expression, right to protest, and access to information in Europe.
GEF will be organising a one-day summer school as part of this activity, with a particular focus on mental health in the European political context and how the green movement can play a role.
