PAREA EU Elections 2024 Manifesto
A New Vision for Mental Health Care in Europe
As the mental health crisis continues to escalate across Europe, the need for innovative solutions has never been more urgent. PAREA is pleased to present its manifesto for the upcoming EU elections in 2024, offering a vision of transformative approach to mental health care through psychedelic therapies.
5 Key Priority Areas
The manifesto zeroes in on five key priority areas that represent the core work of PAREA:
The urgent need for new therapeutic approaches in mental health
The potential of psychedelic therapies
Collaboration for equitable access and infrastructure
Leveraging existing funding structures and policy initiatives
The imperative for more scientific research
These areas collectively offer a roadmap for policymakers, healthcare professionals, and the public to navigate the complex landscape of mental health care.
Key to the manifesto is the call for an EU multidisciplinary task force. This proposed body can establish national guidelines for the responsible use of psychedelic therapies, bringing together healthcare professionals, patient organizations, regulators, psychedelic organizations, and other relevant stakeholders.
Additionally, the manifesto underscores the potential of psychedelic therapies to help individuals confront and understand the underlying issues contributing to their mental health conditions, as opposed to merely managing symptoms.
As we approach the EU Parliament elections in 2024, this manifesto serves as an essential guide for anyone committed to advancing mental health care in Europe.
