There is growing recognition of the need to expand evidence-based prevention practices to the least resources parts of the world. Prevention work in these settings is invaluable given the scarcity of treatment following the onset of disorder or disease. Exciting work is taking place on research, programming, and policy fronts to further these efforts in low- and middle-income countries. The purpose of this brownbag is to bring together conference attendees who are conducting, or interested in conducting, work in these contexts to learn from one another about ongoing work and future directions, and to begin conversations about potential collaborations.
