The 15th Congress of the European Association for Mental Health in Intellectual Disability (EAMHID) in Ghent (September 2025) with some 1000 participants and insights from all over the world was a true festival of inclusion and diversity. Individuals with disabilities have actively participated in all aspects of the congress, from preparation to the event itself.

The EAMHID was founded by Anton Došen in 1995. Its biennial congresses have been gathering academics, professionals, parents, and individuals with disabilities. After his passing away in 2023, the EAMHID board established the ‘Anton Došen dissertation prize’ in his honour. In 2025 the prize was awarded to Helen Korving.
