Overview
School Initiative for Mental Health Advocacy (SIMHA) is an initiative by the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai. By implementing its three-pronged approach of advocacy, research, and capacity-building, SIMHA endeavours to improve mental health systems within educational institutions across India. Through on-field research and multiple stakeholder interactions, SIMHA has established a contextually relevant framework for whole-school mental health practices in schools across India, based on the World Health Organization’s (WHO) whole-school mental health approach. SIMHA connects and works with schools that wish to create a safe, emotionally healthy environment for students and promote the positive mental health and well-being of students as well as educators.
