Mental Health Programming: Best Practices from Sport for Development
Over the past three years, several top mental health NGO’s began to collaborate with international agencies, researchers, and other programs to establish best practices in supporting adolescent mental health in at-risk communities. In this webinar they hope to introduce how they equip community mentors with facilitation skills and curriculum resources to deliver evidence-based mind-body therapy programmes. Mind Power aims to improve mental health of vulnerable populations with high exposure to trauma and limited access to mental health services, including communities in conflict and post-conflict settings. Participants can expect to gain insight into and learn more about:
1. Global context of Mental Health
2. Key lessons from collaborating across the Sport for Development sector and beyond to benchmark Mental Health Best Practices
3. What your program can do
4. How to get more support
