Lived experience leadership and transformative systems change in the mental health and social sectors is the subject of Mind Australia’s inaugural The Stratford Lecture.
Ellie Hodges, a nationally recognised thought leader and founder of South Australia’s peak consumer organisation LELAN will be the guest speaker at the live event to be held on Wednesday 27 March at the Wheeler Centre in Melbourne.
The Stratford Lecture and The Stratford Scholarship have been established by Mind Australia to honour Anthony Stratford’s contributions to the Peer Workforce.
Ellie’s lecture will explore the need for high level system transformation that is informed and led by people with lived experience at all levels. She will speak to the important role of allies and other partnership efforts that are critical to the changes being realised together.
