Abstract

This review, comprising a literature review and consultation, assesses mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) research generated since 2010. Its purpose is to analyse the extent to which evidence generated over the last 10 years has:

  • contributed to the public health evidence base
  • influenced programming and policy in humanitarian settings
  • advanced the research agenda.

The review also provides recommendations to ensure that research over the next ten years has a positive impact on MHPSS programmes and policies, and benefits people affected by crisis.

This research was supported by the Research for Health in Humanitarian Crises (R2HC) Programme
