Moral injury arises when individuals are exposed to events or actions that deeply conflict with their moral or ethical beliefs. Once recognised primarily in military veterans, we now understand that moral injury affects a wide range of professionals-police, paramedics, firefighters, doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and others on the frontline of human suffering.
Its impact can be devastating and enduring-marked by guilt, shame, betrayal, anger, and moral disorientation. Left unaddressed, moral injury can erode identity, trust, and hope, and significantly increase the risk of physical, psychological , social and spiritual harm.
You are invited to the Inaugural Australian and New Zealand Moral Injury Conference (ANZMIC), addressing the theme โMoral Injury | From Recognition to Recovery.โ
This landmark event will bring together global and local experts to examine the latest research, clinical frameworks, lived experience insights, and treatment approaches. From identifying the signs to supporting long-term recovery, the program will span key aspects of moral injury across professions and systems.
This conference is essential for professionals in healthcare, emergency services, chaplaincy, psychology, academia, defence, law, and any field where moral complexity and trauma intersect.
Join us as we take a critical step forward in recognising, understanding, and responding to moral injury-towards a path of meaningful recovery.
