On #WorldMentalHealthDay, as the world highlights “Mental Health in Humanitarian Emergencies,” we in Lebanon still lack a national mental health law. Without legal protection, rights remain fragile & dignity uncertain. MH is not a privilege. It is a right. #WMHD2025 #HumanRights

Irregular migration doesn't end with the journey, it leaves deep scars. Batool, a Syrian mother in Lebanon, is healing from the trauma of letting her sons cross the sea. With IOM and @RESTARTCENTER, she’s learning that healing begins with being heard. 👉bit.ly/3TQiDYE

What we need now is urgent investment: — in a regional roadmap ✅ — in trained personnel — in community-based care — in integrated mental health within primary healthcare and emergency systems…. #VoicesAgainstTorture #MENAForum2025


“Over 87% of communities in Syria lack access to any form of mental health or psychosocial support. This is not just a humanitarian gap, it’s a public duty we’re failing.” remarked Dr. Nabil Samarji from WHO Syria #VoicesAgainstTorture #MENAForum2025


"In Syria, I once asked a patient for informed consent," said Dr. Mohammad El Sherif, from LDHR Syria. "He looked at me and said, ‘Dr., I’m afraid, why are you respecting me so much? Do you need something from me?’” That’s what decades of dehumanisation do. #VoicesAgainstTorture
