WPA World Congress of Psychiatry on September 28-October 01, 2023 in Vienna, Austria

Together with our valued member societies and The Psychiatric Association of Austria, WPA looks forward to welcoming you to the 23rd WPA World Congress of Psychiatry in Vienna, Austria, 28th September - 1st October 2023.

There are exciting times for the practice of psychiatry as psychiatry and mental health are witnessing rapid changes, especially with the current pandemic that is placing a big impact on healthcare systems around the globe. Today, treatment and recovery of mental disorders go hand in hand with promotion and prevention, and there is an increased interest in rehabilitation and psycho-social interventions.

We will examine and discuss all the crucial issues in psychiatry and mental health and are setting up an exciting scientific program with numerous sessions and lectures that convey our present scientific and technological revolution. Delegates will certainly profit from up-to-date research data, the best lectures from experts in all fields of mental health, high-quality scientific content, interaction between mental health and other health and social care professionals, patients and carers, and relevant peer-to-peer networking.

Furthermore, whether your contribution is in the field of psychopathology, biologic psychiatry, pharmacotherapy, psychiatric training, psychotherapy, social psychiatry, rehabilitation, prevention, or services organization, it will surely be an opportunity to share our knowledge.

We are particularly excited to be hosting such a significant event in Europe. The diversity of the region encourages diversity in the program, with opportunities to explore how we work in scarce resources versus high-income settings, and how we can share best practices across settings of all kinds across the world. We will review the 2017-2020 Action Plan and its themes of collaboration, reaching those living with adversity, and the rich and varying ways in which the role of a psychiatrist can be legitimately expressed. We will investigate how the time-honored approaches and the newest techniques in psychiatry - including those in psychotherapies, neuromodulation, pharmacology, digital technologies, and social therapies - can be used practically to support people affected by mental ill-health, their families and friends, and community groups. These groups will join researchers and mental health professionals to consider advocacy, planning, and policymaking across sectors to promote the advancement of psychiatry and mental health in all countries.

Vienna is considered among one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. In addition to attending a high-quality scientific deliberation, you will have the chance to enjoy this beautiful part of the world which has been consistent, over the last several years, coming as one of the most favorable travel destinations for its amazing historical patrimony, culture, natural wonders, and the warm-welcoming people.

Join colleagues and thought leaders from across the globe for learning, sharing, and networking. Needless to say, at our Congress, you will find a memorable reception, informed scientific discussions, great networking prospects, and enjoyable cultural and gastronomical events from our Austrian hosts.

We look forward to seeing you in Vienna, Austria from 28th September -1st October 2023.
