Great post. I think that self-harm and mental health/depression in poor countries is extremely neglected and could prove to be a gold-mine in averting DALYs cost-effectively. There needs to be more RCTs on potential interventions in these areas. Also, poor socialization is a very neglected issue, be it of the romantic or the friendship kind. Loneliness is one of the biggest sources of sorrow in the world yet is perplexingly not even considered a social problem. Measures to correct Asia’s horrendous gender imbalance could do wonders for people to find love. For profit companies could sustainably provide people with better opportunities for friendship.
