Depression is a serious public health concern worldwide due to its high prevalence rate and significant emotional and financial burden on individuals, their families, and society. There is a substantial gap between the number of people in need of treatment for depression and those who actually receive it. The recent World Health Organization (WHO) World Mental Health Survey revealed that 86.3% of people with anxiety, mood, or substance disorders in lower-middle-income countries did not receive any treatment in the past 12 months. This study aims to evaluate a community-based intervention to address demand-side barriers by improving mental health literacy, dispelling myths and misconceptions about depression, changing negative attitudes towards depression care, and promoting help-seeking behavior.
