Fit for purpose? Addressing inequities in mental health research exacerbated by Covid-19

Fit for purpose? Addressing inequities in mental health research exacerbated by Covid-19 This report was produced on behalf of the Mental Health Research Group, an independent group of leaders in mental health in England. It highlights the inequities in mental health research funding and production, what gets investigated and who gets to contribute, as well as who and what is left out of the conversation. It shares examples of work taking place to address mental health inequalities and to challenge inequities of power and influence within mental health research. The report calls for systemic change in the ways mental health research is planned, funded and delivered in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. Centre for Mental Health
