Abstract

In times of global crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic, international collaboration is key as it enables clinicians, academics, and researchers to access current knowledge, expertise, and skills; gain new perspectives; and build relationships with other colleagues [1]. However, early-career psychiatrists (ECPs) around the world have access to limited opportunities to contribute to global mental health and research through international collaboration, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Lack of trained human resources and insufficient training opportunities, coupled with underdeveloped mental health research capacity, limited academic infrastructures, and financial constraints, are key barriers [2].
