World Humanitarian Day - 2020

Image
On World Humanitarian Day, 19 August, we pay a special tribute to the real-life heroes – humanitarians and front-line workers who are doing extraordinary things to help people whose lives have been turned upside down by crises, including COVID-19!! The psychosocially challenged population is especially in need of help. It is specifically and especially during these trying times that the GWRM – GL OBAL WOMEN’S RECOVERY MOVEMENT LED BY DR. LAVANYA SESHASAYEE is doing what it is most suited to do in the field of mental health: looking at mental health issues via a woman-empowering, client-empowering perspective and reaching out to the lost. And we are reaching out to caregivers of women with psychosocial challenges who are most hard-hit along with their wards.

LAVANYA SESHASAYEE’S WORK. #WorldHumanitarianDay   #HumanitarianDay2020  ...
