Self-Immolation in Afghanistan Continues Despite Laws Protecting Women

June 13, 2012 Adults, Mental Health 0

Second-class treatment of women is widespread in some households (in Afghanistan), leading to abusive relationships and violent crimes against women.

It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that I offer to you Rawan Online, the first website on the psychology and mental health of Afghans!

Rawan Online is the first step towards raising awareness on and improving the field of psychology and mental health in Afghanistan.

This website takes pride in its collaborative effort, and therefore, invites all professionals and experts to share scholarly works and information on their research in the area of mental health of Afghans.

The main objectives of this website are:

• Providing basic, scientific, and useful information on general psychology and mental health

• Focusing on the improvement of mental health of Afghans

• Reducing the stigma associated with mental disorders among Afghans

• Highlighting efforts and achievements in the field of mental health in Afghanistan

• Providing updated publications on mental health and psychology

• Connecting students and experts in Afghanistan and abroad involved in the field of mental health
