This interactive map is based on a rapid review of ‘School-based interventions that support mental health and psychosocial wellbeing in low- and middle-income countries.’ The research was jointly funded by ACER and the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) through the Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Centre.
The map displays the number of studies on interventions supporting mental health promotion and psychosocial wellbeing for students aged 5–19 years, that were included in the review. All studies supported students’ wellbeing and reported improving students’ academic outcomes.
The number of studies in low- and middle-income countries and high-income countries are highlighted. When zooming in on the map and clicking on a number, a box will appear with key information about a study. This includes the country, name of the intervention, first author, publication year, and a link to the study.
