Abstract

Across individuals, communities, and ecosystems, unequal ways of living mean different experiences and expressions of wellbeing and distress. What would it mean for Global Mental Health (GMH) to start with these disparities in lived-experience, radically, rather than take them as stumbling blocks to unite under a broad GMH umbrella? This question builds on a tradition of critically appraising the GMH field (see e.g. [1]), seeking a re-shaping of GMH around a shared vision deeply rooted in relationality, equity, and care.
