Australian Television Icon, Ms Paula Duncan AM talks frankly about her personal experience of depressive mental illness and the importance and value of employment in coping with and overcoming depression, at the 15th International Mental Health Conference.

Paula will speak on the role of employment as a means of retaining community connection and self-esteem and as a conscious preventative method for maintaining wellness.

Australian television viewers will recognise 7 time Logie award winning actress Paula from her outstanding career on stage, film and television. Paula's personal journey is both interesting and informative with an outstanding contribution to our community.
