History and Objectives
The Fundació Ferran Angulo was created in 1990 as a common project between professionals involved in the field of mental health and professionals from the business world who were interested in helping to promote quality clinical practices in mental health that could reach the population easily. It also promoted specialised training at international level that could be accessed easily by professionals in Catalonia and in the rest of Spain. Consecutive interpreting was used to ensure that language was not a barrier to learning.
