This World Schizophrenia Awareness Day, PsySSA shares contributions from AI and DPD, reflecting on schizophrenia, psychosis, stigma, dignity, and the future of mental healthcare.

The contributions explore the lived realities of schizophrenia, the importance of person-centred and culturally responsive care, and the evolving role of artificial intelligence in mental health support and intervention.

Awareness begins with listening, challenging stigma, and recognising the humanity and dignity of all people living with mental health conditions.
