Digital mental health in Southwest Asia and North Africa

For the tenth consecutive year, the Southwest Asia and North Africa (SWANA) region remains the least peaceful region in the world[1] due to extreme geopolitical instability, war, and natural disasters. This ongoing turmoil has caused an exacerbation of mental health challenges (Okasha et al., 2024) which, if left unaddressed, will present the biggest barrier to the reintroduction of stability and the rebuilding of societies.

Abstract

For the tenth consecutive year, the Southwest Asia and North Africa (SWANA) region remains the least peaceful region in the world[1] due to extreme geopolitical instability, war, and natural disasters. This ongoing turmoil has caused an exacerbation of mental health challenges (Okasha et al., 2024) which, if left unaddressed, will present the biggest barrier to the reintroduction of stability and the rebuilding of societies.
