The learner analyzes the relationship between mental health and society.

Introduction
In this task, you will examine the relationship between mental health and the broader social and cultural context in which individuals live. You will explore a mental health issue in your community and analyze how social determinants and cultural factors affect well-being and mental health outcomes. You will evaluate evidence-based interventions and consider how cultural influences may shape their effectiveness. The goal is to demonstrate your ability to identify key barriers to mental health and propose strategies that support equitable, culturally responsive care.
