BJPsych Open Refugee and Asylum Mental Health Themed Series
"Connecting with culturally, linguistically and therapeutically appropriate and accessible services in the voluntary, charity and commissioned sectors is essential. Partnerships between these agencies are an essential prerequisite of an effective response. This in turn requires a ‘pyramid of care’ approach"
Kenneth R. Kaufman, Kamaldeep Bhui and Cornelius Katona
The Refugee and Asylum Mental Health themed series highlights the mental health challenges faced by asylum seekers and refugees and underlines the need for a comprehensive response. The groundswell of support for Ukraine is an opportunity for global recognition of the needs of asylum seekers world-wide and the collective moral obligation to address those needs equitably.
Theme Editors: Professor Cornelius Katona and Professor Kenneth R Kaufman
