GIP is involved in work in a variety of areas of mental health, including more widely acknowledged areas such as Community Mental Health, very complex areas such as Forensic Psychiatry & Prison Mental Health, as well as in important new areas such as the intersection of Mental Health and HIV/AIDS.
GIP takes a comprehensive approach to its work in each of its program areas. This is because, in the case of mental health afflictions, it is particularly important to address the problems not just of the patients, but their families and broader social environments, as well as the overarching social, political and legal factors that can hinder or facilitate effective care, support and integration.
Our commitment to comprehensive change means that we pay close attention to cross-cutting themes such as increased user and family involvement, community care and attention to human rights.
Our approach also involves working step-by-step to empower and equip those we work with with more progressive methods and tools.
A full list of GIP's areas of work (program areas) are shown in the left menu of this page. You can click on each one for additional information.
GIP promotes humane, ethical, and effective mental health care throughout the world and supports a global network of individuals and organizations to develop, advocate for, and carry out the necessary reforms.
