Creating Change for

Our Communities

Each year, around one in five, or 960,000 remote and rural Australians experience a mental disorder.

Limited services, fewer available professionals, and poor access to primary and acute care all contribute to inequality in mental health support for those in rural and remote areas.

Combined with a reluctance to seek help due to stigma, cultural barriers in service access, distance, and cost, these factors will continue to have a detrimental impact on the wellbeing of remote and rural Australians.

The Australian Rural & Remote Mental Health Symposium is the platform for change.

Hear from mental health experts, network with service providers, and unite with fellow workers to provide greater mental health accessibility, support, and services to rural and remote communities.

What Makes This Symposium Different?

We are committed to providing practical outcomes for you to utilise, adapt, and adopt into everyday practice.

Our program committee members have been specially selected for their vast knowledge and experience in rural mental health care. From academia through to lived experience, each member offers a unique insight into the challenges and opportunities faced across many sectors of service care, accessibility, treatment, and recovery.

This results in a program designed by the sector, for the sector.

Our program is carefully curated for professionals and industry workers to share best practice, encourage multi-sectoral collaboration, facilitate meaningful connections, and give real solutions to advance mental health in rural and remote areas.

By focusing on early intervention, prevention, and improving service accessibility, we will provide you with the tools to progress mental health and wellbeing for all rural and remote community members.
