In the 5th edition of the “Charisma<\/strong>” awards, given by CONFER (Spanish Conference of Religious), we have been recognized in the “Health” category for our project “The city of the forgotten”, carried out in 2021 by the Benito Menni Foundation, which consisted of providing comprehensive care, with a view to socio-family reintegration, to people with mental and neurological illnesses who were chained in the north of Togo.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These awards seek to recognize different personalities, institutions and foundations for their evangelical values in their daily work. In this case, CONFER has given us the award in the “Health” category for our project “The City of the Forgotten” which was carried out by the Yendube Mental Health Center of the Sisters Hospitallers with the aim of empowering people with mental illness, providing them with quality professional care and mental health, and seeking their rehabilitation so that they can reintegrate socially and with their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project was presented through a webinar in which Sr. Esperanza Sona, from the reality lived from our Mental Health Center in Yendub\u00e9 (Togo), sought to highlight the stigma and discrimination experienced by people with mental illness and that, to a greater or lesser extent depending on each reality, affect their educational opportunities, their income, their job prospects, their social relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We share with you the complete presentation <\/p>\n\n\n\n
