On 14 and 15 June 2021, the international online conference entitled “Mental health voices from Africa” focused on the challenges, needs and practices of mental health and psychosocial support in French-speaking Africa. The conference aimed to be a first step on the way to creating a platform for sharing interdisciplinary and intercultural contributions. This conference was all about the experiences of people who can tell personal stories about the psychological effects of very difficult circumstances. We wanted to hear from the African aid workers who try to provide direct care to the people who really matter in the end: the people who need that care.
