CAMHRA in Focus - Opening Address by Professor Veena Das

Each spring, the CAMHRA gathers our community into a shared space of reflection, to think alongside one another, and to explore the shifting contours of mental health across worlds, disciplines and lived experiences.

Professor Veena Das is a research professor at Johns Hopkins University. Before her retirement, she was the Krieger-Eisenhower Professor of Anthropology. She is a Fellow of the British Academy, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and The World Academy of Sciences.

We are very happy to welcome her as our Opening Address speaker, whose exceptional scholarship will open this year’s CAMHRA Lecture with clarity, reflections and insight.
