Abstract
Global life-changing events such as the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrate the applicability of psychology’s accumulated knowledge about human behaviour to problems in which cultural sensitivity, social justice, and advocacy are paramount (Zalaquett et al., 2019). Yet many psychologists do not seem to realize how relevant our discipline is to the resolution of global issues, missing opportunities for sizeable contributions. Here, we reflect on what is needed from psychology as a discipline and as a profession to respond more effectively to issues of global consequence.
