The Ethics of Global Digital Mental Health

I pledge the vast majority of my time in 2022 to advancing Ethics in Global Digital Mental Health:

This year’s theme for my summer conference, DIMH2022: Digital Innovation in Mental Health, is ETHICS. I welcome anyone who has made ethical advances so we can celebrate your achievements.
I pledge to take my role very seriously as Co-Chair of the IEEE IC Program on Ethical Assurance of Data-Driven Technologies for Mental Healthcare
I am writing a book with a wonderful colleague of mine (Dr Gerry Craigen) called The Ethics of Global Digital Mental Health. We welcome anyone’s thoughts on what content should be included.
ETHICS IN ACTION Project: Promoting greater ethical transparency, reflection, and critique in the academic journal publishing process. We are inviting all Editors of journals to be a part of our simple yet effective change, which – if widely adopted – could be the start of a more profound paradigm shift in how academic discourse is conducted. There is a current lack of emphasis given to ethical discoveries within academic journal articles. We have a solution: we want to get as many journals as possible to adjust their abstract guidelines to require authors to include a heading/statement ‘Ethical Insights’. This sentence should clearly articulate any ethical considerations, discoveries or achievements made during the study. More information coming soon.
