To mark World Mental Health Day, Middlesex University Mauritius brought together academics, practitioners and wellbeing professionals for a symposium exploring how different cultures understand and approach mental health and wellbeing.
Through three panel discussions covering Indian and Islamic, Far Eastern and African, and Western perspectives, the conversations explored the role of faith and spirituality, community, mindโbody approaches and culturally responsive mental health support.
The symposium highlighted the importance of looking beyond a single perspective, recognising how diverse cultural experiences and traditions can enrich our understanding of wellbeing and shape more inclusive approaches to mental health research, education and practice.
Because understanding wellbeing starts with understanding different perspectives.
