BACKGROUND
There is no health without mental health. WHO advocates for a systems approach anchored on a shared vision for the future of mental health in the Region. Mental health promotion involves actions to strengthen the policy environment and the use of strategic communication for network building, stakeholder engagement, enhanced mental health literacy, and behaviour change. Global advocacy days are high-profile opportunities to mobilize partners and resources whilst raising awareness among decision makers and the general public.
Co-creating the vision for the future of mental health calls for strategic engagement with stakeholders through a process that is inclusive, dynamic, and multi-sectoral. This shared vision will be the core of a new Regional framework for the future of mental health that will be proposed to Member States during the 73rd RCM in 2022. In order to sustain high-level advocacy, a side event featuring a panel discussion among decision makers, policy makers, service providers and people with lived experience is being organized for the 72nd RCM in October 2021. Target participants for the side event are official delegates of the RCM, representatives of mental health networks and organizations from the host country Japan, and mental health resource persons and other observers.
The objectives of the side event are:
To complement the panel discussion, and celebrate World Mental Health Day, the side event will also feature a virtual exhibit charting the future of mental health through the stories of various stakeholders. It will feature archival photographs, audio and video testimonials, and data visualizations.
The virtual exhibit will be open to the public and housed on the WPRO MHS webpage. It will be officially launched during the side event with social media posts highlighting its contents and inviting the public to visit and share the exhibit online.
