Health psychology in international health partnerships

Hosted by the School of Psychological Science

Abstract: In 2013, the US Agency for International Development launched an open access journal about global health: science and practice. The editorial identified behaviour changes as the missing building block of health system strengthening. This coincided with my first visit to the African continent and my first experience of behavioural science in a health partnership context. In this talk, I will take you through the last decade of applying and researching behavioural science in partnerships between the UK and low- and middle-income countries. I will identify the challenges and propose some blue-sky visions for the future.
