With Dr Sohail Jannesari. In this episode we look at the intersecting worlds of sanctuary-seeking and mental health. We consider how refugees, asylum seekers and other people on the move don’t just survive displacement, but rather build strength, community, and new ways of coping that challenge everything we know about mental health.
We talk about the global apartheid of borders, how histories of colonialism have shaped mental health services today, and what a more pluralistic ‘marginal psychology’ can offer us instead. We discuss the concept of sumud, trauma as interrupted movement, and why joy, play and the erotic can all help to inform a new, decolonial approach to mental health.
