11 C HALLENGES FOR THE FUTURE Insider vs. outsider Representativeness Sustainability

12 C HALLENGES FOR THE FUTURE “Future developments within the movement are likely to continue to be shaped by the inherent tension between insider and outsider strategies, and between contesting the current paradigm of bio-psychiatry and its disempowering practices and collaboration with it in order to seek reform of the current mental health services. The risk for the user/survivor movement remains that without independently funded, sufficiently robust user- controlled organisations with strong links to active local service-user groups, influencing the professionally dominated policy environment of mental health services will remain a daunting challenge.” Liz Brosnan 2014, p.93
