Nivishe Mental Health Fellowship Cohort 7

Applications are open for the Nivishe Mental Health Fellowship Cohort 7. The Nivishe Mental Health Fellowship is a prestigious 12-week virtual fellowship for emerging and established changemakers who want to move beyond awareness and gain a deeper understanding of mental health from both African and global perspectives. Through sessions led by mental health experts, practitioners, researchers, and leaders, fellows explore topics ranging from community mental health and lived experience to neuropsychology, helping them understand how the brain, mind, environment, and society influence wellbeing. This is not a fellowship where you simply learn about mental health, it is a space where you learn how to act on it. Grounded in African realities, the fellowship creates opportunities to engage with diverse perspectives, strengthen leadership skills, build meaningful networks, and develop practical approaches to addressing mental health challenges within your own community. The fellowship concludes with a Community Impact Capstone Project, where fellows turn learning into action by designing and implementing an initiative that reaches community members directly. Previous fellows have led community dialogues, radio programs, awareness campaigns, school interventions, and outreach activities. They believe knowledge should create a ripple effect, empowering one fellow to influence hundreds of others and contribute to lasting change.
