Part 6/8:
In 2015, Essam and his wife founded Humanity Crew, an organization dedicated to delivering mental health services to refugees in the Mediterranean.
Since its inception, Humanity Crew has provided 32,000 hours of mental health support to over 12,000 refugees, a testament to the profound impact of targeted psychological aid.
Despite this progress, Essam laments the persistent lack of funding, which leaves millions of refugees to grapple with trauma without adequate support. The reality underscores a critical challenge: mental health services for displaced populations remain underfunded and undervalued on the global stage.
