The Scottish Mental Illness Stigma Survey with the Common Good Podcast

Simon Hunter, a Professor of Applied Psychology at GCU, joins the first Common Good Podcast of 2022 to talk about the launch of a new survey that will allow people with experience of complex mental illnesses to share their views and experiences of stigma and discrimination to help shape policy, support and services in Scotland.

Professor Hunter outlines the kind of stigmas people with mental health problems can face, why this survey is needed and how its findings can be put into practice.
He also talks about his own journey in academia.
The GCU Common Good Podcast talks to academics and staff from across the University about how their work benefits people and communities in Scotland, the UK and around the world.
