The Doctor Rodríguez Lafora Hospital, located in the Community of Madrid, becomes a setting for reflection and awareness with a photographic exhibition that commemorates World Mental Health Day. Under the title "Miradas del Lafora," the exhibition seeks to challenge stigmas and foster empathy toward those who live with mental illnesses.
Through a series of carefully selected images, visitors are invited to confront the reality of these people, leaving behind prejudices and labels. The initiative aims to humanize and normalize a topic that is often surrounded by taboos in society.
Organized within the framework of the October 10 celebrations, this exhibition not only highlights the importance of mental health but also opens a space for dialogue and understanding around these conditions. The hospital, known for its commitment to the well-being of the community, thus reaffirms its role as a defender of an inclusive and respectful vision for all its patients.
“Miradas del Lafora” offers visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the experiences and emotions of those who fight stigma every day, promoting a more conscious and compassionate vision. By eliminating judgments and promoting empathy, it is expected that this initiative will inspire a change in the public perception of mental health.
