The Global Mental Health Learning Series is aimed at increasing global learning among students through a series of virtual discussions with eight experts in the field who are engaged in global mental health work through research, practice and policy. There will be four workshops that focus on assessment, equity, intervention, and policy. This workshop focuses on global mental health assessment.
This workshop will include a discussion among the panelists around their work assessing mental health concepts in global contexts. We will examine ways in which the panelists have assessed mental health using rigorous research methods and tools in global contexts (e.g., Peru and Trinidad and Tobago). The discussion will also offer insights into ways in which we can ensure assessment tools developed based on western conceptualizations of mental health are valid, reliable, and account for cultural/contextual differences. The discussion will also allow for questions and answers.
