Manage episode 186842171 series 1537573
This week's episode takes a close look at the economics and politics of mental health and, in particular, the way that some of our economic policies don't just make treating mental health more difficult, but actually contribute to causing it. To explore this, Richard interviews The National Mental Health Commissioner Dr Allan Fels AO, and finds out what the NDIS actually is and does, with NHMRC Research Fellow Dr Gemma Carey, and Eleanor Malbon.
