Leadership in Mental Health

Leadership in Mental Health is an annual course that was started by Sangath in 2008 with the aim to develop capacities of the next generation global mental health leaders to effect change in their countries. Since then, we have trained a diverse cohort of over 450 local and international participants to develop their leadership capacity in the context of the emerging global mental health movement. The course helps promote skills to develop and scale-up mental health interventions, and strategies to overcome barriers in resource-constrained settings, with emphasis on low-and-middle-income countries.

 

You should attend this course if you are seeking an opportunity to enhance your understanding and skills in the field of global mental health. No prior clinical or mental health experience is required.
