    • Stream 3 (Targeted Call for Research): conduct a large-scale multidisciplinary project to build knowledge of the factors that protect the mental wellbeing of individuals and communities from environmental threats and/or the COVID-19 pandemic, how these vary between communities, and how to foster these in communities through community-based leadership.
