FOCUS ON MENTAL HEALTH
The DGPPN is the largest scientific medical association focussing on mental health in
Germany. It pools the competence of 9,000 doctors and scientists in the fields of
psychiatry, psychotherapy and psychosomatics who work in university and non-university
hospitals, in office-based practices and in research.
The association campaigns for the optimal care of
patients with mental illnesses. It develops scientific
guidelines, promotes training and further and continu-
ing education and is involved in research into mental
illnesses to advance diagnostics and treatment. The
main focus is thereby on the holistic view of people and
their individual mental, physical and social characteris-
tics. The DGPPN actively advocates for the participation
of people with mental illness in society and against
their stigmatisation.
