Contract

This is a UNV contract. More about UNV contracts.

UVS is working in the Vidarbha region of India, where every eight hours one farmer has committed suicide since 2006. Our organization's project 'Psychiatric Rehabilitation of Farmers' is dedicated to addressing this issue through which we are giving doorstep services to the beneficiaries which consist of early identification, assessment, and treatment of mental illness. Our identification method consists of doorstep surveying through a PHQ-12 questionnaire. Acutely depressed patients are treated in Civil Hospital for free.

Reaching out to the masses, bringing ease and convenience in the identification of vulnerable beneficiaries, and achieving sustainability of the project are some of the challenges we are confronting which may be better addressed through a better website. The contribution of online volunteers in content writing will help us to develop a comprehensive website dedicated to mental health that will help the masses to deal with mental illness and related diseases.

Selected volunteers will get an opportunity to utilize their expertise and skill set to see the on-ground impact of their contribution which contributes to the SDG3 on Good Health and Well-being.

Our organization is working on a mental health thematic area and we are developing a dedicated website for this area.

The selected Online Volunteers are expected to support with the following: - The Online Volunteers will study various mental health terminologies, research, ideas and extract the best of them to include in our website. - From the extracted content, The Online Volunteers have to prepare own writing material on various topics that include (but are not limited to) mental health resources, solutions, and supports. - One of the selected volunteers may work on organizing, sequencing, and placing the data at appropriate locations. He/she is expected to have basic knowledge of website development but it is not mandatory.

We already have the website structure and design ready with us. Our team may provide complete guidelines about what has to be researched and what areas requires support from Online Volunteers.

Applicant willing to contribute to this assignment is expected to have professional education and/or experience in the mental health domain. Current experience in psychology/ psychiatry will be a great asset to this project. Having basic knowledge of website development is an added advantage.
