About CIMH

The Centre for International Mental Health (CIMH) is dedicated to research, teaching and policy reform in the field of mental health, in Australia and the broader international community. The two main areas of work are in capacity development for mental health in low-income and post-conflict societies, and the development of mental health services for multicultural societies. A key CIMH program is the University of Melbourne- Harvard Medical School International Mental Health Leadership Program (iMHLP).

The teaching, research and policy development programs of CIMH are run in close collaboration with the Victorian Transcultural Psychiatry Unit (VTPU).

As part of the School of Population Health within the University of Melbourne's Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences, CIMH provides world-class teaching and research facilities fostering a multidisciplinary and cross-cultural understanding of mental health and wellbeing.

CIMH is a World Health Organization Collaborating Centre in Mental Health and is working in close collaboration with WHO as part of the Mental Health Global Action Program (mhGAP).
