Support in conducting research

We continue advocacy activities for the creation of the service "Assistant for persons with mental disorders". We are currently conducting research within the project. At this stage, we enlisted the support of our old friends - the charitable public organization "Committee for Perfect Psychiatry".

We conduct research in the form of a survey of men and women of Kyiv with mental disorders. It is important for us to find out how satisfied people are with the social and health services available to them. For this purpose, we developed questionnaires, which for research purposes will be filled out by people in the presence of psychiatrists or clinical psychologists.

At the meeting with Oleksandr Kozlovskyi, the chairman of the board of the Committee for Perfect Psychiatry, we presented our questionnaire and gave some copies to the specialists of the organization. BHO will also publish information about the progress of the research on its channels. In total, we plan to interview 50-70 male and female respondents. Support from a friendly organization will help us do this faster and more efficiently.
