In episode seven, Maytal meets Dr. Dixon Chibanda, a psychiatrist from Harare, Zimbabwe. Dixon is the founder of the Friendship Bench, an organization that trains grandmothers in Africa to deliver evidence-based therapy on park benches. For Dixon, getting the Friendship Bench off of the ground wasn’t always easy - in fact, it initially incited a lot of resistance from the medical community. In today’s episode you’ll learn the story of how Dixon fought through the skepticism and transformed the Friendship Bench into a program that is widely revered across the globe.
