08 Mar 2023 Debunking myths and spreading awareness through the radio

Existing evidence indicates that the mass media efforts to improve public health care can be accomplished through increasing awareness of Mental Health, raising the level of information about health topics and making topics about Mental Health and psycosocial problems more salient, thereby sensitizing the audience to be informed. We continued our efforts to engage the masses through a radio talkshow where you have a live phone in sessions where listeners call to engage in the discussion. Such an awesome session it was.

The team appeared at Radio Maria Liberia to discuss the services provided by the St. Benedict Menni Health Centre and the impact we continue to make in the lives of women living with mental health problems in the country. We touched more about the awareness of mental health and indepth education about the myths and misconceptions, lifestyles and at-risk behaviors that posses the general public to suffer this form of illness.
