About Organization

Overview

The PsyKForum is a registered NGO designed to promote psychosocial and mental well-being through the life course. It was founded in 2018 by a group of Psychologists, Human Resource, Marketing, and Legal professionals seeking to promote mental well-being. We take a population health perspective and focus on building partnerships that help to foster resilience and emotional well-being.

In our work we are informed by the cultural, traditional and existing social support networks that promote peoples wellbeing while supporting individuals, families and communities to build new/additional networks and mechanisms that will empower them to take control of their well-being.
