Participation of the Initiative in the "7th Conference of Education and Research of the Medical School of Democritus University of Thrace"

The 7th Conference of Education and Research of the Medical School of Democritus University of Thrace was successfully held from March 31 to April 2, 2023, in Alexandroupolis. The scientific program focused on Liaison Medicine, new technologies and the connection with the Community. It was a "meeting point" for scientists of Medical Science, researchers, postdoctoral fellows, PhDs, postgraduates and undergraduate students from all over Greece. The conference was attended by approximately 600 participants.

We had the honor and pleasure to participate, on behalf of the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry of PGNA and as CAMHI members, in a round table chaired by Mrs. Evangelia Nena, Assoc. Professor of Social Medicine DUTH and Mrs. Aspasia Serdari, Assoc. Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, DUTH. Mrs. D. Zeleni, took part in the session speaking about YES in an oral presentation entitled "YES: the voice of teenagers in mental health issues". Mrs. S. Mitroulaki and Mrs. N. Claudianou presented part of the results of the landscape analysis on the topics "Teachers' views on mental health issues of children and adolescents" and "Children with mental health problems: the family suffers, the parents as co-therapists" respectively.

The fruitful discussion that followed gave us the impetus to renew our participation for the next academic year!
