As part of Gede Foundation's efforts to increase the awareness of mental health among the key stakeholders and in turn to learn from them, a meeting with members of The Herbal Medical Practitioners’ Association of Nigeria was held on Monday 16th June, 2014 in Iddo Sarki. After the awareness talk, members of the Association were also given opportunity to explain how their practice is related to mental health and how to recognize mental illness. It was a very interesting session and will be continued in subsequent blogs.
