To address these lacunas, a training based on the Mental Health Gap Action Programme (mhGAP) Intervention Guide (IG) was offered to PCPs working in the Greater Tunis area between February and April 2016. While the mhGAP-IG has been used extensively in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) to help build non-specialists’ mental health capacity, little research has focused on how contextual factors interact with the implemented training program to influence its expected outcomes. This paper’s objective is to fill that lack. SN - 1471-2458 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-018-6261-4 DO - 10.1186/s12889-018-6261-4 ID - Spagnolo2018 ER -
