The Global and Cultural Mental Health Unit works to improve mental health and reduce mental illness in low-resource settings and among vulnerable populations in Australia and internationally. We strengthen leadership and build capacity in government and non-government sectors to develop mental health and social support services that are high quality, equitable and affordable, and that protect the human rights of people with mental illness. Their programs integrate research, education and development in two broad areas of work:
- A global mental health program that focuses on mental health system development in low- and middle-income countries; and
- A mental health in multicultural societies program that focuses on mental health in immigrant and refugee communities in Australia.
