Centre for the Advancement of Law and Mental Health
Engaging with consumers, carers, mental health and legal professionals and policy makers.
The Centre for the Advancement of Law and Mental Health (CALMH), based in the Faculty of Law, aims to make a substantial contribution to the transformation of the mental health law.
Directed by Professor Bernadette McSherry (pictured), Australian Council Research Federation Fellow, and Deputy Directors: Dr Penelope Weller and Professor Ian Freckelton, this Centre was officially launched in 2011.
The centre's vision is to advocate for change from a system that is fragmented and inequitable into a new legal system for the delivery of mental health services that is comprehensive, coordinated, evidence-based and just.
