NaCTeM attendance at launch of the South Asia Self Harm research capability building initiative
2017-11-08
John McNaught, deputy director of NaCTeM, will attend the launch event of the the South Asia Self Harm research capability building initiative (SASHI), to be held at the Manchester Musuem on 8th November 2017.
SASHI is a collaboration led by the Centre for Mental Health and Society at Bangor University. It is a partnership between academics working in Mysore and Karachi and UK academics in Bangor, Manchester and Oxford Universities. The purpose of the GCRF-SASHI project is to help to find effective responses to deliberate self-harm and suicide in South Asia by building research infrastructure and expertise in India and Pakistan. This will allow each country to build a body of evidence to facilitate the development of culturally relevant and effective interventions, both social and medical.
