Dr. Mary Mwanyika Sando, CEO at #AAPH_Africa, delivered an insightful presentation at The 2nd Mental Health Scientific Conference on the 'Young People’s Mental Health Landscape in Tanzania, highlighting the prevalent mental health challenges such as stigma, low self-esteem, peer pressure, and cultural beliefs impacting Tanzanian youth. She emphasized the critical need for early interventions, culturally informed policies, and accessible mental health services to support positive outcomes. As Tanzania prepares to launch its first-ever Mental Health Strategic Plan, she called for a unified approach —bringing together mental health professionals, religious and community leaders, as well as adolescents and youth voices — to foster an environment where young people can thrive and envision a future unburdened by mental health disparities. #ForBetterPublicHealth
