• Free access to mental health professionals in developing countries.
• 75 countries included.
• Full-text access to all College journal content. 
• No registration or activation required.

The Royal College of Psychiatrists has made full-text access to the online-version of three of its journals (The British Journal of Psychiatry, The Psychiatrist and Advances in Psychiatric Treatment) free to the developing countries listed below. No registration or activation is required from these countries and the mechanism will allow free online journal access to the vast majority of both institutions and individuals in the chosen countries.

This list of developing countries was collated from the World Bank list of lowest income countries and the OECD list of countries qualifying for Official Development Assistance based on per capita GNP. The College is dedicated to the principle of barrier-free dissemination of scientific information and makes the content of all its journals freely available to all countries 1 year after publication.
