Description
Nelson Ositadimma Oranye and colleagues publish a 2026 protocol for a systematic review of school and community mental health programmes. The review targets children aged five to nineteen in marginalised or underserved groups. School pressures can cause distress, which often hits these children hardest. Where a programme runs may affect how well it works.
Reviewers will search major databases for randomised trials of programmes that aim to prevent depression, anxiety, and stress. Two reviewers will screen studies and extract data independently. Quality checks, pooled analyses, and subgroup comparisons are planned. The goal is fair evidence on which setting serves underserved children better.
