Understanding barriers and enablers to community participation for people with psychosocial disabilities in Fiji
People with psychosocial disabilities in Fiji continue to face deep‑rooted exclusion driven by stigma, discriminatory laws, and limited community-based supports, despite Fiji’s commitment to the UNCRPD. This research, led by the Psychiatric Survivors Association of Fiji with CBM Australia, highlights the daily barriers people experience, from denial of decision‑making rights to restricted access to services, while also showing how inclusion and peer‑support networks can transform wellbeing and participation. The findings call for urgent legislative reform, investment in rights‑based community supports, and meaningful involvement of people with lived experience in shaping policies and services.
Our approach to mental health document
People with psychosocial disabilities continue to face exclusion, stigma, and systemic barriers to their rights, especially in low‑resource settings where access to social protection, rights‑based healthcare, and community participation is limited. CBM Global works to change this by promoting a human rights–based, lived‑experience‑led approach to mental health and psychosocial disability, aligned with the CRPD, the Sustainable Development Goals, the WHO QualityRights Initiative, and the global disability movement.
