Paul Bolton MB BS MPH MSc is a Senior Scientist in the Department of Mental Health at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health. Dr. Bolton has 25 years of experience in global mental health working in program design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation with international and local NGOs and governments. He has led programs and research in Europe (former Soviet Union), South-East Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East, and the Pacific region. His research includes many randomized controlled trials exploring effectiveness and implementation practices for MHPSS interventions, as well as qualitative studies of population-specific needs and the development and testing of valid assessment instruments.

This is based on evidence that mental health is a major factor in health, well-being, and prosperity both directly and as a major determinant of program participation.
