Addressing “what matters most” to reduce mental health stigma in primary healthcare settings: a qualitative study in Lebanon
This study identified key domains to understand the factors for WMM in reducing mental health stigma in Lebanon and explored factors that shape the values and priorities of both PWLE and primary healthcare providers. The study suggests assessing the effectiveness of anti-stigma interventions that actively engage PWLE in their design and implementation, while exploring the broader applicability of the WMM framework across different cultural and healthcare settings.
