The Public Squares Teams
Early Intervention and Child Mental Health
Early intervention and child mental health: A collaborative space for thinking from the health- and social sciences. This Public Square focuses on early intervention and child mental health in Africa. Much of the existing knowledge about this pertinent issue originates from mono-lingual, high-income countries. Through an Afro- centric lens, this Public Square will highlight the unique experiences, strengths, and challenges within the field in Africa. In collaboration with transdisciplinary academic and non-academic stakeholders, the core research team will generate knowledge and identify ways of engaging, supporting, and intervening in this context. It will also lead to the development of impactful research projects and accessible dissemination tools for local caregivers, clinicians, educators, practitioners, and policymakers.
