एबीपी लाइव पॉडकास्ट की खास पेशकश ‘संवाद’ पर हमारे साथ लाइसेंस्ड कंसल्टेंट क्लिनिकल साइकोलॉजिस्ट [दिल्ली-एनसीआर] और ज्वाइंट सेक्रेटरी- इंडियन एसोसिएशन ऑफ क्लिनिकल साइकोलॉजिस्ट श्वेता शर्मा हैं. नई शिक्षा नीति को साल 2020 में पीएम मोदी की अध्यक्षता में हुई कैबिनेट की बैठक के बाद लागू किया गया. इसका मकसद भारत में एजुकेशन लेवल को वैश्विक स्तर पर लाना है. न्यू एजुकेशन पॉलिसी के तहत स्कूल से लेकर कॉलेज तक शिक्षा में बदलाव किया गया है. लेकिन पेशेवरों की तरफ से में संशोधन की मांग की जा रही है, ताकि लोगों के स्वास्थ्य के साथ आगे खिलवाड़ न सके. एबीपी लाइव पॉडकास्ट पर आइये सुनते हैं पूरी चर्चा.
When you find yourself craving continental cuisine, but your chef is well-versed in Pacific culinary delights, it presents an interesting culinary challenge.
But this experiment cannot be applied to, at least health-related issues that too particularly when it comes to mental health issues.
More so, when we are seeing a huge surge in mental health cases among younger generations including students, whether from medical or engineering to name a few.
To put it in simple words, the analogy of craving continental cuisine with a Pacific-focused chef was used to illustrate a culinary challenge, but mental health challenges are complex and should be treated with the utmost seriousness and empathy.
This is what happened at a NITI Aayog meeting held last August to discuss the proposed modifications to the M.Phil. in Clinical Psychology. Attended by psychiatrists with no adequate representation of clinical psychologists who understand the field’s complexities, the outcome looks like not only chaos but also an attempt to degrade the quality of the aspiring professionals in the sector.
