Manga, a 24×7 helpline and AI: How India is piloting new mental health support network for BRICS
In India, a new mental health support network is being piloted in collaboration with other BRICS countries. This initiative aims to provide accessible, acceptable, and localized mental healthcare. One example of this is the use of educational manga in China to address mental health stigma among young people. The network will integrate mental healthcare into primary health centres, train frontline healthcare workers, and foster collaborative research on digital interventions.
The goal is to learn from each other's approaches and adapt them to the specific needs of each BRICS country.
