Hi,

I'm hoping to find people currently enrolled in Global Mental Health PhD programs anywhere on the globe. I want to get a sense of the kind of experiences they've had within the program and the balance of cross-cultural perspectives within. On a more logistical note:

A sense of how applications are reviewed and received
Funding within the program
A comparison of GMH approaches and programs.

If not GMH, what would be equally appropriate program choices for a person with work and research experience in community/global mental health as well as trauma? (I work as a clinical psychologist in India.)

It depends on what you want to do with your training. You might consider a public health or public policy degree as an alternative to a psychology PhD.

I would suggest taking a look at the American Psychological Association's International Psychology division (Division 52 International - Home).
