I would say to date, the SL volunteering experience has been one of the most inspiring opportunities that I have come to experience thus far. As a psychology student at the time, that was planning to enter the mental health sector, I gained invaluable knowledge about a non-western approach to mental health, and the differences these convey not only in treatment, but also the communities view which has a very large impact on the individual, within a collectivistic environment.
- I also loved the fact that I remained within the community that we were helping to support, and not far removed, as this would lessen the entire experience.
Overall, I would actually like to thank the organisation for the perspective I was able to gain, whilst appreciating the increased humility from the work and what we were able to achieve.
all the best
