EPA 2027 WELCOME MESSAGE

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure and anticipation that Prof. Volpe and I invite you to attend the 35th European Congress of Psychiatry, which will take place on 3–6 April 2027 in Florence, Italy.

The theme of the 2027 Congress, “Innovating Mental Health: Towards Personalised and Integrated Care,” reflects a key priority for our field and a pillar of the EPA’s 2025-2027 Action Plan: ensuring that innovation in research, clinical practice, service delivery and therapeutic options leads to more tailored, person-centred, and effective care for people living with mental health conditions.

TESTIMONIALS

“The diversity of scientific sessions and speakers offered a comprehensive view of current psychiatric practice and research. It was an excellent opportunity to network with professionals from across Europe and to engage in meaningful discussions about mental health innovation. The balance between clinical updates, policy discussions, and personal experience sharing created a rich and inspiring learning environment.”
“EPA 2025 has been a truly eye-opening experience. It offered valuable insights into the future of psychiatry and helped me gain a broader perspective on where the field is heading. I'm grateful for the opportunity to learn from such inspiring experts and connect with colleagues from across Europe.”
“The most valuable aspect of the congress was the strong emphasis on human rights, dignity, and co-construction in mental health care. The diversity of perspectives—from patients and families to professionals and policymakers—created a rich, inclusive atmosphere. Also, the smooth online access to key sessions and the opportunity to rewatch content made the experience flexible and deeply informative.”
“The congress has the perfect balance between cutting edge research brought from the bench to the bedside. Code of conduct and moral issues dealt with in a most admirable way”
“The best aspect of this Psychiatric Congress was the opportunity to hear diverse cultural approaches to mental health. By learning about how different countries and cultures address psychiatric care, I gained a broader understanding of the global perspectives and challenges in the field. This exposure not only deepened my knowledge of various treatment methods but also highlighted the importance of cultural competence in providing effective mental health care.“
“The best part of the congress was definitely the broad scope of presentations. It’s possible to find something that matches your own interests, while also having the opportunity to watch several presentations after the conference has ended. Personally, I was very busy during the days of the conference, which is why I participated online. For that reason, the recordings that are now available are of great value to me.”
“Excellent scientific program with cutting-edge research, practical workshops, and inspiring keynotes from leading experts.“
