CAPACITY BUILDING CORE – ABSTRACT The Capacity Building Core (CBC) for the sub-Saharan Africa Regional Partnership for Mental Health Capacity Building (SHARP) responds to the large mental health treatment gap in sub-Saharan Africa by targeting both researchers and policy makers through capacity building initiatives. These initiatives include developing implementation research and research application skillsets, providing opportunities for applying newly acquired skills, and creating a platform for outcome driven dialogue between researchers and policymakers. CBC activities will benefit from UNC’s demonstrated expertise in the fields of implementation science and mental health and the institution’s strong existing partnerships with the Malawi Ministry of Health, University of Malawi College of Medicine, Partners in Health, Tanzania Ministry of Health, and Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences. The CBC proposes to (1) provide a short course program for key skills to ensure participants can design and conduct implementation research on contextually appropriate, evidence-based mental health interventions and translate that research into routine practice; (2) develop a multi-faceted platform to facilitate dialogue between researchers and policymakers in governmental, academic, and non-governmental institutions; (3) provide opportunities to engage in applied implementation science research and apply for pilot grants involving research and policy teams; and (4) create a Mentor the Mentors program to develop researcher and policymakers trainees who can serve as independent mentors to medical and public health students. Our proposed program ensures that researchers and policymakers will have both the skills and infrastructure needed to meaningfully appraise and efficiently apply evidence-based care and treatment models to mental health disorders such as depression, which are prevalent in LMIC settings and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Our approach reflects an appreciation of the LMIC context and an understanding that sustained capacity rests on engaging trainees with a breadth of perspectives and providing them with a depth of knowledge and structured opportunities to practice and share that knowledge. Our multi- pronged approach has been designed by a dedicated cohort of local and international experts with a proven record of mentorship and meaningful collaboration and holds the promise of bringing transformative and transferable change to LMICs burdened by high mental health care treatment gaps.

能力建设核心-摘要 撒哈拉以南非洲地区精神卫生伙伴关系能力建设核心（CBC） 能力建设（SHARP）通过以下方式应对撒哈拉以南非洲巨大的心理健康治疗差距： 通过能力建设举措，以研究人员和决策者为目标。这些举措包括 发展实施研究和研究应用技能，提供申请机会， 新获得的技能，并为研究人员和 政策制定者。加拿大广播公司的活动将受益于加拿大广播公司在执行领域的专业知识 科学和心理健康以及该机构与马拉维卫生部现有的强大伙伴关系， 马拉维大学医学院、卫生伙伴、坦桑尼亚卫生部和Muhimbili 健康与联合科学大学。 CBC建议（1）提供关键技能的短期课程计划，以确保参与者能够设计 并就适合具体情况的、基于证据的心理健康干预措施开展实施研究 并将研究成果转化为日常实践;（2）建立多层面的平台，促进对话 政府、学术和非政府机构的研究人员和政策制定者之间;（3） 提供机会，从事应用实施科学研究，并申请试点赠款， 研究和政策团队;（4）创建导师导师计划，以培养研究人员和 政策制定者培训生，可作为医学和公共卫生专业学生的独立导师。 我们提出的计划确保研究人员和政策制定者既有技能， 有意义地评估和有效应用循证护理和治疗所需的基础设施 抑郁症等精神健康障碍的模型，这是在LMIC环境中普遍存在的， 具有显著的发病率和死亡率。我们的方法反映了对LMIC背景的理解， 认识到持续的能力取决于让学员具有广泛的视角， 他们有深度的知识和结构化的机会来实践和分享这些知识。我们的多- 由本地及国际专家组成的专责小组， 有指导和有意义的合作记录，并有望带来变革性和 可转移的变化，以低收入国家负担的高精神卫生保健治疗差距。
