IGHS takes a holistic approach to mental health, encompassing training, direct interventions and research on care models. Our work emphasizes the interconnectedness of mental health with other health outcomes and socio-economic factors. With projects in various countries and regions, we collaborate with local communities, policymakers, and global partners to understand different populations’ unique mental health needs and develop tailored interventions. By leveraging our interdisciplinary expertise, IGHS contributes to building resilient health systems that recognize and address mental health as a critical element of global public health.
