EViPRG works by drawing on its members’ multidisciplinary expertise in clinical psychology, education, mental health nursing, pharmacology, psychiatry and sociology to examine the problem of violence and coercion from a wide range of perspectives. EViPRG was founded in 1997 and is an active and productive network which meets regularly to exchange and update ideas and to disseminate research to mental health practitioners in participating countries. The network also organises the bi-annual conference “European Conference on Violence in Clinical Psychiatry“.
