Tanzania Mental Health Summit

Mental health care in Tanzania faces significant challenges due to limited resources, infrastructure, and accessibility. Specialized mental health facilities are scarce and primarily concentrated in urban areas, leaving rural populations with little to no access to essential services. Despite the pressing need, mental health remains underrepresented in the national health agenda, with minimal budget allocation, policy support, and implementation of the

Tanzania Mental Health Policy of 2008.


The Tanzania Mental Health Summit aims to bridge these gaps by creating a platform for collaboration, advocacy, and action. Through partnerships with stakeholders, innovative strategies, and increased awareness, we strive to transform the mental health landscape in Tanzania, ensuring equitable access to care for all.
