Integrated Innovations for Global Mental Health 2011 |
. Integrated Innovations for Global Mental HealthThis program on global mental health is seeking innovative solutions for improving treatments and expanding access to mental health care in low- and middle-income countries. An estimated 13% of the global burden of disease is attributable to mental health disorders, with almost three quarters of this burden affecting people in low- and middle-income countries. To address this complex problem, Grand Challenges Canada is looking for solutions that take an Integrated Innovation approach, have the potential for real world impact and demonstrate a path to scale and sustainability. To improve treatments and expand access to care, applicants must propose innovative solutions to one (or more) of the following specific challenges identified from the Grand Challenges in Global Mental Health initiative within this priority area:
In addressing specific challenges for improving treatments and expanding access to care, proposed solutions must also take into account variations in local cultures, traditions, and beliefs, and should address the stigma, discrimination and social exclusion faced by individuals and families affected by mental health disorders in seeking treatment and care.
