World Mental Health Day 2023 – Newsletter

Kelp

The 10th of October is globally celebrated as World Mental Health Day. This initiative was started by the Deputy Secretary of WHO, General Richard Hunter, in 1992. The primary goal of this day is to garner support for mental health and increase awareness regarding mental health concerns across the globe. The day also offers an opportunity for mental health practitioners to discuss their work, and what further needs to be done to ensure that mental health resources are accessible to people across the globe.

Up until 1994, the day’s only goal was to raise awareness regarding mental health issues and educate the public. On Eugene Brody’s recommendation, World Mental Health Day was observed with a theme for the first time in 1994. “Improving the Quality of Mental Health Services Throughout the World” was the focus of the conference. This year the theme is “Mental Health is a Universal Human Right.”

In the spirit of raising awareness we at KelpHR this year have decided to dedicate the entire month of October to the cause. A month full of activities to help you tackle mental health challenges at a physical and emotional level. We look forward to you joining us on this journey.
