Prioritising the Mental Health of Psychiatric Trainees across Europe

This first special issue of the International Journal of Psychiatric Trainees (previously named European Journal of Psychiatric Trainees) features four articles based on posters presented at the 31st Forum of the European Federation of Psychiatric Trainees in Zurich. Focusing on mental health challenges faced by psychiatric trainees across Europe – including key themes such as burnout, depression, and the impact of patient suicide – this special issue highlights the need for systematic support programs, improved awareness and utilisation of mental health resources, and structural changes in medical education. By considering these matters, the Journal supports discussion and action towards improving the mental health of psychiatric trainees worldwide
