Course on Leadership in Mental Health
A two week course by Sangath and SCARF, November 2008 (tentative dates Nov 10-21, 2008)
A two week course on Leadership in Mental Health will be organized by Sangath and SCARF, in collaboration with the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine & the Centre for International Mental Health, University of Melbourne in November 2008.
Community Health Research Methods Training Course
Sangath initiated its annual ten day intensive training program on community health research methods in 2002, through a grant from the MacArthur Foundation which had helped set up our Resource centre for Adolescent and Child Health. We have continued to run this course every year since then. The course is offered in two five day units: ’Basic Research Methods’ and ’Advanced Research Methods’.
The basic course covers writing project proposals, quantitative and qualitative research methodology, study designs, measurement, project management, ethics and critical appraisal. The advanced course covers evaluation and intervention study designs, data management and analysis using statistical and software packages for data analysis, qualitative data analysis, and dissemination of findings.
