Domestic violence is a form of Violence Against Women that is highly prevalent in India and has been found to have associations with short- and long-term mental health disorders, particularly depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and suicidal ideation. We are developing a clinical intervention to improve the mental health of survivors of domestic violence in Goa. This is part of a larger multi-country study, working to improve the mental health of survivors of violence against women, modern slavery, and civil conflict in resource-constrained settings in India, Sri Lanka, and Afghanistan.
Our NIHR Global Health Research Group is a collaborative research group working towards developing a comprehensive, adaptable package of care to improve the mental health of survivors of violence against women in resource-constrained settings in India, Sri Lanka, and Afghanistan. At the India site, our aim is to develop a package of care for the mental health impact on survivors of domestic violence that can be delivered by lay health workers operating in low-resource settings.
