Had the opportunity to join the Independence Day celebration of the Republic of Azerbaijan and meet with the Consul General Vugar Gurbanov to reflect on the country’s journey of growth and resilience.
It was inspiring to learn more about Azerbaijan’s ongoing commitment to advancing mental health awareness and services—a crucial step toward building healthier, more inclusive communities.
