A Partnership with Multilateral Organizations and Global Academic Networks

Partnership with Multilateral Organizations:

The stewardship role of the World Health Organization has been fundamental in transforming the way mental health issues are perceived and prioritized globally. For the past four years Dr. Vigo has collaborated closely with PAHO and WHO to advance our understanding of the true burden of mental illness, improve the quality of care, and increase coverage.
