Resisting epistemic violence in global mental health
Background While there is consensus that local knowledge is important to build better mental health responses, integration of this knowledge into mental health services remains a work in progress. In this paper, we explore local understandings of mental health, mental illness, well-being and emotional distress building dialogical spaces that enable community perspectives to inform academic knowledge and health systems . Methods We identified loca…
The impact of creative arts-based interventions for mental health in conflict-affected contexts
In conflict-affected contexts, mental health interventions utilising creative arts methods are increasingly common. However, there is limited information on the effectiveness of these interventions. Building towards an evidence-base, this systematic narrative review applies a realist lens to explore where, for whom, and how arts-based interventions impact mental health in conflict-affected contexts. Academic studies were retrieved from 4 database…
I take a deep breath first”
Previous research shows that poverty can hinder the development of self-regulation skills, yet little is known about how individuals living in poverty experience self-regulation. This qualitative study aims to understand young people's experiences as they deploy self-regulation strategies and navigate interpersonal and contextual barriers associated with chronic scarcity. Adolescents (n = 29) aged 10-19 years living in low-income urban areas in B…

Focus group discussions (FGDs) differ from other qualitative data collection techniques because they offer unique insights into how collective sense-making occurs in real time in social settings. However, systematic qualitative tools to analyze interaction in FGDs and the richness of data it yields remain scarce. In this article, we propose a seven qualitative indicator model, adapted from previous studies on FGD data quality, to assess group int…
Imagination and mobility in the city
We focus on the notion of borders to explore how mobility and immobility in the city affect the relationship between human development and urban culture. We define borders as a relational space made of territoriality, representations and different possibilities of mobility and immobility. Drawing on research in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, we suggest a systematic approach to the analysis of borders and identify the socio-institutional, spatial …
No Place to Belong
This article examines the consequences of undocumented immigration status for those who grow up in the United States. The aim is to examine the relationship between undocumented immigrant status and mental and emotional health. Our efforts focus on undocumented immigrants who arrive as children and spend most of their formative years in the United States. The experiences of these undocumented members of the 1.5 generation are quite different from…
