This book focuses on the theoretical concepts of community psychology, and its applications in day-to-day life. It discusses the challenges that adversely affect the welfare and wellbeing of common people and suggests community centric, evidence-based measures to address them.

Factors like new age lifestyles, fast-paced development and an increase in occurrence of natural calamities have been detrimental to the psychological wellbeing of the community. This volume integrates the social, cultural, economic, political, and environmental aspects of community psychology to address community life-based issues which include mental health stigma, social asymmetries, resource disparities, disadvantaged minority groups, the differently abled, HIV/AIDS patients, project affected people and disaster victims.

Key features of this book include:

  • Dedicated intervention-based chapters on mental health, physical health, differently abled people, elderly, vulnerable children, HIV/AIDS patients, and people affected by development projects and disasters.
  • Focus on challenges faced by students and school-based family counselling.

  • Case Studies and conceptual models for better understanding and application of the subject.

The volume will be a valuable resource to students, researchers and teachers of Psychology, Social Work, Sociology, Public Health, and Social Economics. It will also be an indispensable read for social workers, NGOs, advocacy groups, and policy makers working in the field of social upliftment.
