Six Organisations Launch Initiative to Support Medical Professionals' Mental Health
Six mental health and medical organisations from India and the UK have launched the Humanising Medicine India Initiative to support medical professionals' mental health. The initiative includes a national survey on doctors' lived experiences and barriers to seeking help, a webinar series on wellbeing, and a workshop at the Indian Psychiatric Society's 2027 conference. It aims to foster a culture where medical professionals can openly address mental health challenges without stigma, responding to high rates of depression and burnout among medical students and doctors.
