PSYNC collaborates with various stakeholders. You will find a list of stakeholders with whom we collaborate on this page. All these stakeholders participate in the annual PSYNC Steering Committee during which we review past PSYNC-activities and we discuss future (possible) actions.
In addition to the steering committee, PSYNC of course also collaborates with several other important partners (e.g., City of Ghent, Awel). In order to carefully follow up important policy dossiers, several PSYNC promoters participate in the Working Group on Follow-up of Mental Health Dossiers. The members of that working group are represented in various associations and decision-making bodies such as the Federal Council, the Supreme Health Council and the Commission of Psychologists.
Would you or your organisation also like to collaborate with PSYNC on the topic of mental health? Then contact the PSYNC coordinator via e-mail.
Following stakeholders participate in the PSYNC steering committee:
