Global Asylum Seeker and Refugee Mental Health Initiative

The Global Asylum Seeker and Refugee Mental Health Initiative is a program dedicated to improving mental health support for people fleeing their countries due to conflict, persecution, or disaster. It focuses on understanding the psychological challenges these individuals face—such as trauma, anxiety, and stress—and providing culturally sensitive care. The initiative also promotes awareness, training, and research to develop effective mental health services, ensuring asylum seekers and refugees receive the necessary emotional and psychological support during their often difficult resettlement and integration processes.
