โ€œMental health in humanitarian emergencies / Access to services โ€“ mental health in catastrophes and emergenciesโ€

This World Mental Health Day, we highlight the importance of mental health in times of crisis and emergencies. Everyone โ€” children, youth, and adults alike โ€” deserves access to support, care, and guidance.
