After a decade of research, significant gaps in mental health and wellbeing challenges among migrants, refugees, and asylum-seeking populations were identified, driven by social determinants and health inequities. To respond to and resolve these pressing needs, the CMRH as an agency to address these gaps was recognised and proposed to provide accessible, culturally appropriate, and sensitive healthcare and mental health services, ensuring vulnerable communities receive the support they need both locally and globally.
The CMRH took action and intervened by launching targeted initiatives to bridge these gaps, focusing on culturally appropriate and sensitive healthcare, mental health services, community support programs and research, policy support, and advocacy to address the health inequities and inequalities.
As the COVID-19 pandemic subsided, CMRH resumed major projects to meet the community’s growing needs. They focused on accessible healthcare, mental health support,and community outreach. CMRH prioritised rebuilding trust, re-engaging with the community, and addressing health challenges through resumed services. Their initiatives highlighted a commitment to supporting resilience and recovery, with emphasis on mental health, public health education, and aiding vulnerable populations.
With CSRN’s pro bono services consultancy support from UK, CMRH expanded global partnerships, strengthening its ability to provide healthcare and mental health services locally and internationally. Collaborations with 180 Degrees Consulting and Cambridge Consulting Network propelled CMRH’s humanitarian efforts, supporting displaced populations and refugees across Africa. In 2024, CMRH reached crisis-affected regions,including South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, and beyond, marking a major milestone. CSRN’s strategic guidance has ensured sustainable impact, embedding CMRH’s services globally. These partnerships are essential for enhancing the wellbeing of vulnerable communities.
As CMRH continues to deliver top-quality health care and mental health services to the migrants, refugees, and asylum-seeking communities locally and internationally, it anticipates expanding partnerships with additional charitable organisations and philanthropies. These collaborations aim to enhance CMRH’s efforts each year in fulfilling its vision, mission, and values at a global standard while striving for recognition of its impactful service delivery moving forward.
