How has Covid affected our mental health?
Mental health has not always been a priority for African governments 鈥� but, in many ways, this pandemic has shown us how much need there is for adequate help.
It鈥檚 been a rough couple of months.
Mental health has rarely been a priority for most African governments.
So, when the pandemic hit, the few support services available often found themselves overwhelmed.
But younger people are set on changing the way the continent talks about mental health 鈥� and they鈥檙e using social media to put the topic back on the agenda.
How much difference can they make?
