Dr. Justin Thomas is a psychology Professor and the Head of the Research Cluster for Culture Cognition and Wellbeing at Zayed University, United Arab Emirates. This research cluster focuses on exploring the interface between culture, society and mental health. Join us for an insightful chat as Justin shares his thoughts on how unique, community-based factors influence the way we interact with and perceive our mental health. We discuss how to honour experiences of wellbeing by bringing awareness to these concepts in culturally-informed and individualised ways.
