"The Lancet Commission on Global Mental Health"

The Lancet Commission on Global Mental Health is a research-focused group that studies mental health issues worldwide. Their goal is to raise awareness, inform policy, and improve access to mental health care, especially in low- and middle-income countries where resources are often limited. They highlight how mental health conditions like depression and anxiety affect individuals and communities, emphasizing that mental health is a crucial part of overall well-being. By providing evidence and recommendations, they aim to reduce the global burden of mental illness and promote greater understanding, support, and effective treatment for all.
