Diversity in Research Podcast
Mental health literacy, stigma and cultural differences in mental health experiences
Show Notes

Mental health understandings have been surrounded by stigma and a lack of literacy for many years but this is slowly changing. In our conversation with Associate Professor Nicola Reavley,  Principal Research Fellow, Mental Health Literacy Programme at  Melbourne School Of Population And Global Health we explore how this stigma is changing, what this means for education and support services and what role cultural differences play in mental health. These differences can be important for international research collaborations.
