Welcome to the 2020 European Empowerment Seminar! Originally due to take place in Kilkenny, Ireland, the seminar moved online due to the pandemic. The webinar entitled “Let’s Talk – Empowering Recovery in Europe” took place online on 24th July 2020 and was hosted by Mental Health Ireland. The seminar was co-produced by people with lived experience of mental health challenges, family members / carers, service providers and focused on how Empowering Recovery through co-production provides better outcomes for everyone. The seminar explored the key concepts of CHIME – Connection, Hope, Identity, Meaning and Empowerment through a variety of interactive and creative means. These included: Music, Poetry, Art, Live Interactive Panel discussions, Presentations, Workshops dedicated to Human Rights and Advocacy, Education and Recovery and the power of Peer Workers in mental health service development and delivery, and a Virtual Recovery Trail. In honouring true co-production, this year we invited people with lived experience of mental health challenges, family members / carers and service providers to register. Enjoy the webinar, now available in full as a recording. To follow the online conversation from the day go to twitter and search @MentalHealthIrl or #empoweringrecovery.
