Recovery Education is a process that acknowledges
the uniqueness of each person and their mental

professional level. It encourages the acceptance of
individuality.
Recovery Education in Ireland is currently guided by
the four principles (see below) outlined in the
National Framework for Recovery in Mental Health
2018-2020.
Adopting a strengths-based and adult education
approach, it provides individuals with the choice to
participate in various learning opportunities. Guided
by values such as self-direction, lived experience, coproduction, and diversity, Recovery Education can be
facilitated from a central location or hub commonly
known as a Recovery College (HSE, 2017).
