Determinants of Mental Health and Traumainformed Mental Health

Description

The course emphasizes the psycho/socio/cultural aspects and implications of trauma as a determinant of mental health, and the social determinants of mental health (with trauma being one of these). The course content is underpinned by the theory that acknowledges the socially constructed nature of the mental health/illness discourse. Contemporary and historical issues in mental health sciences are examined. The evolution of various diagnostic systems is compared. Case studies focus on the relations of poverty, violence, and culture-bound syndromes to mental health.
