to attend a cultural symposium entitled “Culture of Society and the Courage of the Sick.”

Ambassador Nabila Makram spoke about the role of society in understanding, accepting and supporting people with mental illnesses in psychiatric hospitals, schools and universities.

Also the role of training social workers of new methods of treating the sick so they can adapt to society thus helping in minimising psychological illnesses that may lead some of them to suicide or unintentionally harming others.

The floor was opened for discussion.
