Delighted to share the new special issue on Global Mental Health I edited!
journals.sagepub.com/toc/tps…
...in which I revisit the epistemic politics of the field in light of its changing agenda, methods, people, and the changing contours of the "gap."

The open-access editorial by our very own @DBemme revisits the epistemic politics of the field, including a critical reflection on the changing contours of the "gap."

“We propose a historical approach that is attentive to how culture has been operationalized ideologically in the geographies of the global south (…)”
New, excellent piece by @cultmindcenter’s @anaantic_hist et al.

Central to our #research approach is social #theory based on multiple forms of knowledge. In a new CSMH led article, 39 international collaborators have developed a framework to guide mutuality in global #mentalhealth

I learned a lot from working with @DBemme @thewrittenro and many others on this project.
Here are our reflections on striving for “mutuality” (and inevitably failing) in the context of global (mental) health collaborations

UCU members have voted to escalate action in their fight for decent pay and working conditions and will take part in marking boycotts across the UK
Please stand with them in their fight for the future of the sector
Staff and students deserve better
#OneOfUsAllOfUs
ALT UCU general secretary Jo Grady said: ‘The decision taken by our members to escalate the pay and working conditions dispute to a marking and assessment boycott reflects their justifiable anger at university vice chancellors who continue to ignore their concerns whilst drawing over-inflated salaries and hoarding billions of pounds in reserves. 'The union’s full weight is behind every member who is taking this action on behalf of all university staff and students, which is the only way to secure the long term future of the sector.’
