2025 Paul Farmer Symposium on Global Health Equity

The global mental health crisis is one of the most urgent and complex challenges of our time. Dr. Paul Farmer taught us that advancing mental health requires care that extends beyond clinical settings—addressing the broader social, economic, and structural determinants that profoundly influence mental well-being, including poverty, displacement, and systemic inequity. We invite you to join us virtually for the 2025 Paul Farmer Symposium on Global Health Equity, where a keynote address and engaging panel discussions will explore how comprehensive approaches can meaningfully respond to the global crisis in mental health care. This year's content was inspired by a mental health-focused issue of Dædalus, the Journal of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, which explores the frontiers of knowledge and issues of public importance.
