Detailed Description: Throughout the world people with psychosocial disabilities are frequently exposed to human rights violations such as discrimination and exclusion from society inability to access health services physical sexual and psychological abuse violence neglect and denial of the right to legal capacity

Another obstacle to access to care to social inclusion and which encourages violations of the human rights of people with psychosocial disabilities is represented by the stigma and discrimination it entails

Furthermore caregivers themselves can also be the recipients of stigma and previous research suggests it affects more than half of them

This stigmatization represents a real burden especially in emotional terms for caregivers and can reduce access to support resources and opportunities in the social sphere with an impact that also has repercussions on the person with psychosocial disabilities for whom they take care treatment

The importance of providing positive support to caregivers in their supporting role emerges an increasingly broad evidence base underlines the benefits of caregiver involvement on the well-being of their family member in particular it is associated with an improvement in the quality of life a reduction in symptoms the risk of relapses and hospital admissions

In this context Internet-based interventions can be a useful tool to increase the knowledge of caregivers of people with psychosocial disabilities and to reduce the physical and psychological consequences resulting from burden and stigma

The implementation of a mental health human rights literacy intervention among caregivers is of crucial importance in the current context This type of initiative aims to provide caregivers with the knowledge and skills needed to understand respect defend and promote the human rights of people with psychosocial disabilities and can help caregivers identify situations where the rights of people with psychosocial disabilities could be violated Such action can contribute to the empowerment of caregivers and people with mental health conditions and can help combat the stigma and discrimination associated with mental disorders

The specific objective of the research is to conduct a randomized controlled trial in Italy to evaluate the effectiveness of the World Health Organization QualityRights training compared to a control intervention another online training program in improving human rights knowledge and caregivers attitudes towards people with psychosocial disabilities as rights holders
