It's World Mental Health Day
Today is a reminder that not only #poverty, but income uncertainty has a negative effect on the mental health of farmers in low-income countries
We explored this using volatility in the price of coffee in #Vietnam🇻🇳: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

It is with the deepest sadness that we have learnt about the passing of @fdrepsi Director General, Prof Beyene Petros
He was a most inspirational leader and supporter of the FFU/DFC project on Building Resilience to Climate Change in Ethiopia
May his soul rest in peace

Not only #poverty, but also the risk of poverty caused by fluctuating coffee prices has a significant additional negative effect on the mental well-being of farmers in low-income countries.
