It is with a great pleasure and enthusiasm that, together with the Local Organising Committee Chair, we warmly invite you to the 33rd European Congress of Psychiatry.

The Congress will take place on 5-8 April 2025 in Madrid, Spain.

Our European Psychiatric Association community is growing fast, as testified by the increasing number of members and the numerous activities the EPA is organising. Many of you are young and clinically oriented, and it is this clinical orientation that is highlighted in the motto of our Madrid Congress:

“Towards Real-World Solutions in Mental Health”.

Indeed, next to excellent and ground-breaking research, one of the core interests of EPA is the clinical translation of these findings and the sharing of good practices. As clinicians, we are engaged on a daily basis to help real-world patients. Of course, we need to be informed of the newest scientific developments, but even more we need to get new, creative ideas and examples on how to shape our day-to-day practices.

Excellent science, high-level educational programmes and a clear focus on clinical implementation is what you’ll find in Madrid.
