The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) a Project Grant totaling $164,000 under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) on May 4, 2026, with a completion date of May 3, 2028. This research project examines the relationships between exposure to political violence, food insecurity, and mental health outcomes in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT), a protracted conflict-affected setting. The research leverages longitudinal geo-location political events data and three waves of repeated cross-sectional household survey datasets to investigate how cumulative exposure to both violent political events (such as military assaults) and non-violent political events (such as political agreements) function as stressors and impact food security and mental health outcomes over time. The project will generate peer-reviewed research publications and analytical datasets that advance scientific understanding of how political instability and conflict contribute to food insecurity and mental distress in fragile and conflict-affected settings. The research addresses a critical knowledge gap regarding the differential cumulative impact of repeated political events on the food insecurity-mental health relationship, with findings intended to inform interventions and policy approaches for populations experiencing prolonged exposure to violence and conflict-related stressors.Federal Grant Award Summary
