Improving Access to Mental Health Care and Psychosocial Support within a Fragile Context: A Case Study from Afghanistan
Published By: Plos Medicine on eSS | Published Date: May, 01 , 2012Afghanistan is
an example of a ‘‘fragile state,’’ characterised
by a government that lacks the
capacity to provide core services and basic
security to its population. Improving health
care within fragile states needs to focus on
quick and tangible improvement of services
to the people, while also addressing longterm
development and strengthening of the
health care system. [Plos Medicine]. URL:[http://www.plosmedicine.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pmed.1001225].
