Dealing with a Post-COVID-19 Mental Health Crisis (Panel Discussion)

Chaired by Maryam Aliko Mohammed, mental health advocates Leyla Hussein, William Ebiti and Hauwa Ojeifo will discuss Africa’s preparation for the inevitable continent-wide crises. How will the African continent rise to the challenge when it still stigmatises mental health challenges? This panel will review the long-term effects of social isolation and explore how to strengthen the existing health infrastructure.
