VALLADOLID STATEMENT. «Recovery in Mental Illness is possible and probable»
Fight stigma, prejudices and discrimination promoting
campaigns and activities such as in media, schools and at
the workplace to promote the integration of people
experiencing mental health conditions;
Develop and disseminate the best available research and
evidence on good practice, taking into account that
recovering in mental illnesses is a non-linear and complex
process where subjective, contextual and biological factors
are involved.
