Hope for Schizophrenia in Indonesia

We have worked with talented PhD student Sri Padma Sari at Coventry University to deliver online support for people living with schizophrenia in Indonesia.

Padma was a DIKTI's awardee and a third-year PhD student at Coventry University's Centre for Intelligent Healthcare.

We have adapted our digital platform to host Padma's Hope 4 Skizofrenia online course.

Based on the Hope Programme, Padma has developed new content and has running her PhD research study alongside trialling the first of its kind intervention supporting 35 people living with schizophrenia in Indonesia.
