Decult 2024 is a conference addressing the pervasive harm inflicted by high-control groups in Aotearoa New Zealand. By giving cult survivors a voice and bringing experts from various fields together, Decult 2024 is creating a unique opportunity for mental health professionals, government departments, law enforcement and first responders to offer better support and prevent cultic harm in the future. The conferences aim is to develop lasting networks for professionals and to present ongoing events. More cult awareness will improve the wellbeing of vulnerable individuals.
Decult is for anyone interested in spirituality, religion or personal growth who wants to engage in respectful discussion to broaden their knowledge – especially health professionals and frontline services helping cult victims. Topis include how does recruitment work, what are the signs of coercive control, how can people get out, and how can they recover?
