| Abstract | Background The prevalence of mental health disorders is increasing globally. Countries in South Asia, Southeast Asia and the Middle East regions carry high burdens of mental health need; however, there are relatively few mental health research publications from this region, suggesting inadequate research funds and a paucity of qualified research personnel. To increase and strengthen the pool of mental health researchers in India and Egypt, we conducted three psychiatric research programmes in these countries: the Training Program for Psychiatric Genetics in India (2002–2011), the Tri-National Training Program for Psychiatric Genetics (2009–2014) and the Cross-Fertilized Research Training for New Investigators in Egypt and India (2014–2019). A total of 66 trainees, including psychiatrists, psychiatric social workers, clinical psychologists and research psychologists, were supported in research development, which included didactic training, proposal development, hands-on research and manuscript preparation. Methods The aim of this study is to evaluate these three training programmes using the four-level Kirkpatrick Model of Training Evaluation that assesses reaction, learning, behaviour and outcomes. A descriptive analysis was used to explore the data collected throughout the duration of the three training programmes. Online surveys were crafted and sent to the mentors and trainees of the three programmes to supplement objective training data. Results In addition to positive changes in the areas of reaction, learning and behaviour, significant outcomes were demonstrated. As of the writing of this manuscript, the trainees published a total of 130 papers, 59 as first author. In addition, 26 trainees have co-authored papers with one or more trainees or mentors, which demonstrates successful research networking and collaboration. Conclusion Our findings suggest that our training approach is a successful model for building independent mental health researchers. This is a critical step in the development of effective mental health interventions in low- and middle-income countries. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
