Mental Health

Many LSHTM researchers and students work to promote mental health worldwide through their research, teaching and advocacy.  LSHTM was therefore delighted to launch a new Centre for Global Mental Health in 2009, in collaboration with King's Health Partners.  The aims of the Centre are to establish a centre of excellence fostering research and capacity building in policy, prevention, treatment and care of mental illness around the world.  Please visit the Centre’s website for more information on our aims, research and teaching, including details of how to join the Centre's email list (this replaces the previous LSHTM mental health website and e-list).

We also encourage you to join the Movement for Global Mental Health , a global network of individuals and institutions who are committed to furthering the goal of scaling up evidence-based services for people living with mental disorders and protecting their human rights.
