Mental Health & Psychosocial Well-Being

This session addresses the growing global priority of mental health and the essential role of psychosocial support in promoting overall well-being. As communities worldwide face increasing stressors—including societal pressures, chronic illnesses, disasters, and economic challenges—integrated mental health strategies are vital for achieving sustainable health outcomes. The session explores key areas such as early identification of mental health conditions, community-based mental health services, trauma-informed care, and approaches to reduce stigma and improve access to care. It also examines the psychological impact of emergencies, the importance of resilience-building, and innovative digital tools that enhance mental health support and monitoring. Participants will gain insights into evidence-based interventions, counseling techniques, multidisciplinary care models, and policies that strengthen mental health systems. By highlighting prevention, support, and recovery pathways, this session aims to empower professionals to foster holistic well-being and create mentally resilient populations.
