Thank you to all the participants of the 3rd Meeting of the International Open Dialogue Research Collaboration!
Here are a few highlights about the event:
- It has been the first online global research conference of the Open Dialogue community!
Although we missed the free-flowing face-to-face conversation, we appreciated that being online increased inclusion and diversity by making this event accessible to valuable members of our community who could haven’t attended in person. - It has been the first peer review experience of the OD learning community designed to promote a culture of learning & growth, including the wisdom of lived experience.
- It had a participatory design– and reflects the ongoing collaboration among highly motivated community members and groups engaged in workshops and social spaces.
- It promoted research to be at the core of our community as a tool to understand and develop our practice and monitor our progress and outcomes.
- It promoted collaboration among academic researchers, persons with lived experience, and Open Dialogue practitioners and citizens interested in human rights-aligned approaches to mental health.
Thanks to keynote speakers, members of the conference committee, authors, reviewers, chairs, and chat moderators for providing so many experiences and contributions.
