Health Education & Advocacy 

A lack of knowledge about various healthcare practices is a common cause of widespread illness in many communities. For example, some cultures emphasize a high carbohydrate diet that can lead to obesity and hypertension. Along with physical wellbeing, mental health is an aspect of FIMRC. There are cultures that perpetuate a stigma surrounding mental illnesses. 
​
​

​FIMRC works to provide free lessons, materials, and advice to willing communities around the world, hoping to shed light on various preventable diseases. Lessons on hand-washing, a healthy diet, and exercise can go a long way. ​​

Global Mental Health Day

Harvard FIMRC partnered with Students In Mental Health Research and Student Mental Health Liaisons to host an Advocacy Event on Campus on Global Mental Health Day to bring awareness to mental health inequities on a worldwide scale as well as to promote mental health awareness among the undergraduate student population.
