Links between health institutions in countries with high incomes and those with incomes in the low-middle range are becoming more common, and benefits from these links are increasingly recognized. One such link is between Kings College Hospital and THET (Tropical Health and Education Trust) and their partners in Somaliland. The mental health part of the link consists of public service providers, educational institutions, and local nongovernmental organizations in Somaliland with mental health volunteers from the United Kingdom, led by the Institute of Psychiatry. The authors describe how careful planning has permitted the collaboration to evolve to allow mental health services to become embedded into activities that strengthen the Somaliland health sector.
高收入国家和中低收入国家的医疗机构之间的联系越来越普遍，这些联系的好处也越来越被认可。其中一个联系是英国国王学院医院与 THET（热带卫生与教育信托基金）及其在索马里兰的合作伙伴之间的联系。该联系中的心理健康部分包括索马里兰的公共服务提供者、教育机构和当地非政府组织，以及来自英国的心理健康志愿者，由精神病学研究所领导。作者描述了精心的规划如何使合作得以发展，使心理健康服务融入到加强索马里兰卫生部门的活动中。
