Settings and Populations: Mental health promotion and illness prevention
Introduction
These pages will provide access to information concerning 'what we know' about mental health promotion and illness prevention approaches for a range of population groups and in a variety of settings.
We hope that this approach to packaging information will support increased understanding of the relevance of promotion and prevention approaches within a range of contexts outside of the mental health sector.
Each of the series will focus on:
- The evidence, rationale and benefits of incorporating promotion and prevention approaches within the relevant population group or setting
- Programs/implementation strategies
- Relevant Australian policy
- Examples of good practice
- Key resources and links
The first 2 papers in this series are available now:
