Change and progression of science and medical knowledge concerning psychiatry or disrupting the larger field of neuroscience will also be covered.

The main goal of the conference will be to enable the members of congress to gain tools of thought, conception and action in order to help them in defining, driving, and implementing their own local project of change in their own care projects by medical teams, nurses and managers. The main theoretical and academical models concerning transformation of care organisation and the implementation of change in mental health will be presented.

It will be followed by a confrontation of actual down to earth experiences, regional, territorial or carried out by health establishments, adapting or transforming health supply offered to the citizens.
