THE WORLD FEDERATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH announces the Fifth International Congress on Mental Health to be held in Toronto, on the University of Toronto Campus, August 14th to 21st, 1954. The theme of the Congress is: Mental Health in Public Affairs. Internationally known leaders in the mental health field will present papers of general interest at the plenary sessions. There will be technical sessions each morning consisting of scientific papers and round-table discussions, supplemented by smaller discussion groups.
In conjunction with the Congress on Mental Health, THE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR CHILD PSYCHIATRY will hold an International Institute on Child Psychiatry on August 13th and 14th, 1954. The theme of the Institute is: Emotional Problems of Children Under Six. Members of the Institute will discuss prepared clinical case studies and research reports related to the treatment of young children. It is hoped that some broad principles of child psychiatry will emerge which will be useful to workers in this field. Papers will be submitted from the United States and other countries which illustrate a variety of treatment methods and different professional and cultural points of view.
