Summary:[...]the model of care was designed to respect the TFH approach to healing while seeking to address concerns about harmful practices through a rights-based approach. [...]the trial explicitly tested the value of collaboration over and above separate training programmes for TFHs and PHCWs. [...]that there is evidence that collaborative models can work in one setting, we next need hybrid effectiveness-implementation trials incorporating theory-informed measurement of relevant contextual features across a range of settings.8 This approach will contribute to building a body of evidence to tell us what works for whom, how, and in what context.9 The mental health response to the COVID-19 pandemic must include TFHs,10 providing an opportunity to evaluate models of collaborative shared care.
