Quotation Are Invited For Integrated Mental Health And Psychosocial Support (Mhpss) Interventions To Enhance Lgbtqia + Mental Health And Psychosocial Wellbeing In Myanmar. Deadline: 03-Aug-2022 12:00 (Gmt 6.30) Myanmar Unfpa Is The Lead Un Agency That Expands The Possibilities For Women And Young People To Lead Healthy Sexual And Reproductive Lives. In 2021, Unfpa Myanmar Commissioned A Mental Health And Psychosocial Needs Assessment Of The Lgbtqia+ Population Including A Survey Of More Than 1,500 Self-Identifying Lgbtqia+ Individuals From Around The Country. The Data Revealed Concerning Evidence Around The Wellbeing And Safety Of Lgbtqia+ People. Mental Health Outcomes For Lgbtqia+ Populations Are Poor With The Most Serious Statistics From The Study Indicating That Half Of Lgbtqia+ People Had Considered Self-Harm, And Of Those, Nearly Half Had Acted Upon This Urge. Furthermore, Around Half Had Thought About Suicide, And Of Those, Nearly 1-In-3 Had Made An Attempt On Their Life. These Worrying Results Can Be Attributed To The Widespread Violence, Discrimination And Marginalization Suffered By Lgbtqia+ Individuals Across The Country. These Dynamics Impede Their Access To Healthcare, Education And Livelihood Opportunities, Which In Turn, Further Exacerbates Poor Mental Health. Tender Link : Https://Www.Ungm.Org/Public/Notice/178611
