The Mad Campaigns Lab programme has come to an end for 2026! We’ll be plotting next year’s events over the coming months, and news will be sent to members via our weekly bulletins and details added to our website and social media channels, so stay tuned.
2026 programme
Our 2026 programme focused on issues that intersect with mental ill-health, distress, or trauma. The aim of the sessions was to:
- Expand understandings of issues which are connected to mental ill-health, distress, or trauma
- Develop a broader awareness of what ‘counts’ as mental health work
- Create spaces for knowledge sharing on mental health and Disability justice
- Design campaigning goals; identifying key players and strategies for change
Session recaps
- Borders, migration and mental health with Fancesca Humi and Brian Dikoff
- Climate justice as a mental health issue with Hannah Hunt and Tori Tsui
- Big Tech and mental health with Mad Youth Organise
- Madness & Palestinian Liberation with Makan
