Mental health Scale Up Nigeria (mhSUN)

mhSUN is a programme in Nigeria, undergoing a process evaluation of mental health integration into primary health care system. There are two project sites in Kaduna and Cross River States, designed to give an opportunity to test a theory of change in a northern and southern site.

The overall aim is to engage the Federal Government in a process of evidence-based reform of the mental health system based on established policy frameworks. The project uses mhGAP resources and evidence established in similar settings.
