The Ministry of Health- Mental Health Division with support from the UK Public Health Rapid Support Team, UK Health Security Agency, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and Makerere University, organized a tabletop exercise to assess Mental Health Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) interventions in the Rwenzori Region. The workshop will evaluate the effectiveness of preparedness and response activities, comparing Bundibugyo with Kasese, and foster experience-sharing among health system actors. This exercise aims to strengthen MHPSS practices, assess intervention impacts, explore frontline workers’ coping strategies, and inform future emergency response efforts across districts. #MOHatWork
