The landmark WA Mental Health Conference is all wrapped up for 2024!

The State's fifth flagship mental health conference was held on 26 - 27 November 2024 at Perth Exhibition and Convention Centre.

The WA Mental Health Conference was coordinated by the Western Australian Association for Mental Health, with principal support from the WA Mental Health Commission and Lotterywest.

About the conference

The conference aims to develop, strengthen and support WA’s mental health sector and wider community, so we can work better together in the interest of the community’s mental health.

This event provides collaborative opportunities for people with lived experience, clinical staff and non-clinical mental health workers; offering the chance to share resources, perspectives and best practices.

The Conference Theme

With the new WA mental health and AOD strategy expected in 2025, the "Solutions in Motion" conference is a catalyst for positive change.  This year’s theme provided practical expressions of what we want the future of mental health in WA to look like as we work towards recovery-oriented and community-focused system.  Attendees attended a dynamic conference with a program that combined topical and timely conversations, and practical streams on things like integration, capacity building, and workforce. 
"Solutions in Motion"  highlighted what’s working well in our system that should be built upon as well as shared new insights and ideas.  This collective effort created a lasting impact, as we work together to build a better tomorrow.
