STSS Briefing Paper Podcast: Improving Access to Evidence-Based Interventions for Trauma-Exposed Adults in LMICs
Episode 15
Wednesday, 26 November, 2025

In this episode, former ISTSS President Professor Deborah Kaysen speaks with Dr. Anushka Patel about the new ISTSS Briefing Paper on improving access to evidence-based interventions for trauma-exposed adults in low- and middle-income countries. Together, they explore the global mental health burden, the treatment gap for trauma survivors, and why task-sharing and community-based models are essential for expanding access to high-quality care. They also discuss what the research shows about non-specialist-delivered interventions, the importance of sustainable training and supervision structures, and the policy implications for strengthening mental health systems worldwide. Based on the ISTSS Briefing Paper, available for free on the ISTSS website.
