Project Investigator: Nhlanhla Mkhize
Nhlanhla
Mkhize is a lecturer in the School
of Psychology at the University of Natal. He played a crucial role
in the design and implementation of a program of services to remote areas
of KwaZulu Natal. This program utilized the railway system to transport
health, psychological and social services to rural villages. Railway train
cars were equipped as offices and clinics and would bring care givers
to remote areas to provide services for 2-3 day time periods. His research
interests also include the development of psychological assessment techniques
for use with mainly black adolescent pupils and socio-cultural psychology.
He also serves on the Board of Directors for the Careers Resource Centre
and on the Advisory Committee and Trainer of Life Line.
