Mental health promotion strives to improve mental health through developing ways of adjusting and coping with challenges. These strategies are at the heart of human development and can strengthen social and economic outcomes, and are especially important in low to middle income countries where hardship is common, and where the emphasis has been solely on care and treatment of people with mental illness. The book provides a relevant conceptual and theoretical base for the application of health promotion in scarce resource contexts. It includes examples of evidence-based programmes across the lifespan applicable in low resource settings. Written by experts in the field of mental health promotion, this is a vital text for mental health and general public health students and practitioners as well as mental health policy makers and planners.
