About: | World Islamic Association for Mental Health [WIAMH] is an Islamic organization founded in the 1980s.
Since modern psychiatry is a Western import to the Muslims it was felt by pioneer Muslim psychiatrists, that for psychiatry to work more effectively in the Muslim world all aspects of the psychiatric process including Diagnosis, Prognosis Treatment, and Planning for Psychiatric Facilities, have to be adapted to the Islamic cultural context. The major objectives are to promote mental health in Muslim countries and to carry research in cultural psychiatry of the Muslims. |
