Work Package 7 Policy Brief
As part of WP-7 ‘research-to-policy’ we aimed to understand the facilitators and barriers impacting evidence uptake during the development of key Indian adolescent mental health policies. This policy brief is based on the analysis of policy documentation and 13 in-depth interviews with a variety of stakeholders (policymakers, researchers and mental health practitioners). This brief aims to enhance awareness of the current role of evidence within four selected national mental health policies and provides implications for improving evidence-informed policymaking which can be adapted across states.
Work Package 4 Report
Work package 4 aimed to understand if parents could be engaged in school wellbeing programs and if they were interested in learning about mental health. This report summarises this work package and our findings.
