The Music Therapy with Families Network and the Music Therapy Research Centre Vienna as part of the the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna organised an inspiring Music Therapy Symposium in Vienna, from 23^rd-25^th September 2022. The event was the first international stand-alone symposium focused on Music Therapy with Families.

The focus has been on families across the age-span, from music therapy work with children and their families to practice with elderly people and their relatives. It included a lively programme of innovative, multidisciplinary, interactive sessions and presentations which encouraged discussion about a broad range of approaches when working with families.

We were so happy to welcome more than 180 participants (live and online) from about 30 countries around the world.

Thank you all for coming to Vienna!

Hope to see you again,
