The World Psychiatric Association (WPA) is an independent, not-for-profit organisation funded by a mix of public and private donors and activities such as our annual World Psychiatry Congress. None of our income is guaranteed, and without financial contributions from individuals, foundations, governments, and other institutions, we may struggle to carry out our work.

​

We actively seek support from individuals and organisations who share our values and aims, and who wish to invest in supporting us in the field of mental health.
