Between Borders is a research, policy and practice organisation bridging forced displacement, neuro-somatic and mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS). We work across a range of displacement contexts, including conflict, climate change, natural disasters, statelessness, and development.

We convene leaders from civil society organisations, displaced communities and the fields of neuroscience, mind-body disciplines, and MHPSS to shape knowledge, raise awareness and promote information exchange through research, workshops, training and public events.

Our research aims to broaden understanding of the neuro-biopsychological responses to displacement and the role of creative therapies to support healing and resilience-building in both psychology and functional psychiatry. We aim to open up communication channels and opportunities for collaboration across sectors to integrate mental health into policy, practice and dialogue.
