Abstract
Over the past few years, a new WHO mental health programme has been formulated through a process of consultations within WHO, with other UN bodies, with governments, the scientific community and various non-governmental organizations (Sartorius, 1978; WHO, 1978a, b). This report will attempt to give an outline of research activities that are being initiated, co-ordinated and supported by the programme at country, regional and global level.Keywords
