Mental health and human rights are closely intertwined. Mental well-being is linked to peace and equity, yet marginalized individuals are often blamed for their struggles. Critical global mental health and global public health have recognized the urgent need to analyze and intervene in the political determinants and antecedents of cogent global challenges of our contemporaneity, such as environmental, gender, economic, and ethnic racism.
