World Mental Health Day ππ
This year's theme revolves around accessibility to mental health services and associated challenges. This is a global issue that is even more pronounced in resource-limited contexts such as the African continent where a lot of work is needed in addressing disparities.
Cohesive Collaboration has been partnering up with the Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa (IDC) to make a difference in the mental health landscape. I served on this platform with the goal of unpacking another disparity in mental healthβthe silent crisis in men's mental health.
Green is the designated colour for mental health awareness and October is Mental Health Awareness Month in South Africa. Play your part in whatever way you can this month π
