Following the recent launch of the WHO Mental Health Intervention Guide to make care more acceptable, as an activity of the mhGAP project, the WHO has created a video and podcast looking at how the WHO is integrating mental health into primary health care systems. The video and podcast include comments from Dr Margaret Chan, WHO Director General; Dr Shichuo Li, Co Chair of the Global Campaign Against Epilepsy and President of the China Association Against Epilepsy; Doctor Shekhar Saxena, WHO’s Director of the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Department; and Zhaoming, a person with epilepsy in China.
