It was an enormous opportunity to work with the WHO steering group and experts from around the world to revise the mhGAP guidelines (3rd edition).
This is an evidence based, valuable resource to build the capacity of non-specialists for countries like Pakistan.

#Sudan’s #humanitarian crisis is huge and brutal, still in a death spiral, and woefully neglected. Aid is getting in, but local responders should be setting the agenda.
A privilege to speak with @RichPreston@BBCNews to explain why we’re in Cairo for the @sudan_crisis conference
It's an irony to witness European States roll out red carpets for officials of a gender apartheid regime in Afghanistan, while journalists and activists in Iran and Pakistan suffer, waiting for visas. Germany's condemnation of Taliban's officials is not enough; an investigation
Doctors Without Borders mission head: "And yes, I have worked in conflict zones. And they’re always very nasty. But this is a particularly brutal thing because of the huge number of civilian casualties" https://t.co/dRgd2KCeF4
