This grant from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) aims to establish regional research hubs to enhance the evidence base for mental health interventions in World Bank-designated low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). These cooperative agreement awards will support robust research and provide vital capacity-building opportunities across six distinct geographical regions: East Asia and the Pacific, Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Middle East and North Africa, South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Collectively, awardees will form a collaborative network dedicated to advancing mental health research in LMICs. This network will facilitate answering crucial research questions, both within and across regions, ultimately improving mental health outcomes for men, women, and children.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), invites cooperative agreement research applications to establish regional research hubs to increase the evidence base for mental health interventions in World Bank designated low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Each regional hub is to conduct research and provide capacity-building opportunities in one of six geographical regions (i.e., East Asia and the Pacific; Europe and Central Asia; Latin America and the Caribbean; Middle East and North Africa; South Asia; Sub-Saharan Africa). As a group, awardees will constitute a collaborative network for mental health research in LMICs with capabilities for answering research questions (within and across regions) aimed at improving mental health outcomes for men, women, and children. |
