Mission of Hope (MoH) conferences and workshops provide stimulating information on a variety of health themes, primarily mental health. Presented by qualified health and welfare practitioners, our engaging presentations provide relevant academic research, as well as practical strategies, which are pertinent to the enhancement of the health and wellbeing of the culturally diverse Australian Muslim community.
The immediate objective of the conference is to provide a national and international forum for academics, clinicians, and health professionals to engage in meaningful dialogue regarding the issues of health and welfare issues as it applies to the diverse Australian Muslim community.
The main topics of the conference will focus on the areas of mental health, medical health, public health, women's issues and health, refugees issues, criminal justice issues, and welfare issues. We will invite delegates to present material of theoretical, empirical and applied relevance to the Australian Muslim community. The following areas, as they apply to the main topics, will be considered: hospital care for the Muslim patient, mental health issues, refugee topics and trauma, drug/alcohol issues, criminal justice, treatment and rehabilitation, family coping and adjustment, child and adolescent development, women's issues, multicultural perspectives on health, care for the elderly, and spirituality. We especially welcome presentations by those who have worked closely with Muslim in the areas of health or welfare.
This event is supported by the University of Western Sydney
