I am a lived experience researcher working on resilience, grief, and postvention. Would be glad to help in any way.
People with lived experience of mental health conditions must be at the centre of #MentalHealth policy & service design.

"They eat little and badly. Even devastating illnesses go untreated. They have no savings. No one knows what this rate is nationally, as the government led by Narendra Modi has suppressed unpleasant economic and welfare data for a decade".
US aid cuts could create untreatable TB bug ‘resistant to everything we have’
Powerful essay by Siddhartha Mukherjee on how Covid pandemic destroyed the idea of health as a public good and made it into a private responsibility

Early reports to WHO from the 30 highest #tuberculosis (TB)-burden countries confirm that funding cuts from foreign aid, particularly from USAID, are already dismantling essential TB services.
Without urgent action, these setbacks will reverse decades of progress to #EndTB 🔗 bit.ly/4kvsu2i
@madhupai.bsky.social puts together what I think is the best short course on global health currently out there . He brings together a cast of lecturers with so much experience. Worth enrolling if interested. I highly recommend it .

We definitely are not leaving a good world behind, in any way.
I also read similar views and am stunned by the normalization of bullying.
We got to a point that we, a society, dont care anymore. Those who care have also become hoarse screaming for some accountability or changing the system. We are just letting kids die.
Absolutely true. The colonizers are now cutting aid to counties that they have exploited in the past. It's a new world, which we have to be deeply concerned about.
Countries that gained so much wealth via colonization, slavery and exploitation are in a desperate hurry to cut the tiny amounts of money they were giving as humanitarian aid
- USAID: gone
- UK aid: biggest cut in history
- France, Germany, Sweden, Finland also cutting their foreign aid
SHAMEFUL!
I do believe there is hope. That the bullies will fall, and those who stand up to them will win. Zelensky stood his ground with calm maturity and has done his people proud.
