About the event

This webinar intends to educate Ghanaians on how prevalent mental health is within the

culture and how the culture encourages poor wellbeing through social, economic, and religious

pressures. In this 60-minute webinar I will be discussing what mental health is and the

psychical/psychological symptoms of mental health. In Ghana mental health is seen as a taboo

or a curse from someone in the family doing wrong to another. Which then results to people

believing that mentally ill individuals are dangerous or demons. Because of this belief mentally

ill individuals are left abandoned by their family or community. Therefore, I want to use this

opportunity to education my fellow Ghanaians on mental health and how they can help their

loved ones during a time of need.
