The Diploma Course exceeded all my expectations. From the drafting and review of legislature and policies to the launching of advocacy campaigns, the students were equipped with a whole range of strategies and measures to actively improve the human rights situation within the mental health field.

The residential sessions in Pune were a unique opportunity to connect with user representatives, advocates, and professionals from all around the globe and to discuss human rights and mental health related issues. The faculty comprised of experts from a range of professional backgrounds and different nationalities, who willingly shared their expertise and – most importantly – were dedicated to the cause of improving the living conditions of persons with mental disabilities worldwide.
