Early career psychiatrists corner. Third young psychiatrists' network meeting: Stigma in YPs' perspective

摘要

The movement of the young psychiatrists' (YPs) network (YPN) was born in 2009 and has developed substantially since then. The idea of network collaboration was suggested by the Swedish Eastern Europe Committee (Assoc. Professor Jerker Hanson) and found approval of YPs from Lithuania, Sweden, Belarus, and Russia in Kaliningrad in May 2009. Next 2 meetings took place in Vilnius, Lithuania in 2010 devoted to neuropsychiatry and diagnostic scales and Riga, Latvia in 2011 with the main topics of personality disorders and coercive care. The number of countries-delegates has increased from 4 in 2009 to 18 (90 YPs) in 2011.
