Am I Doing Good? – The Mental Health Industrial Complex

A series of seminars is designed for clinicians (but open to everyone), who want to grapple with this question of ‘doing good’, by learning more about some of the global social theories that structure inequity in the mental health profession/system.

The concept of the industrial complex is used to analyse the way sectors of society that are supposedly working for the good of the population become profit-making and profit-driven, and develop a conflict of interest whereby they profit the most by not achieving their stated goal of helping society.
