About this Research Topic
The mental health of students is a critical component of overall well-being and academic productivity, situated at the heart of contemporary public health policies. With global crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic intensifying psychological challenges among young people, the importance of knowledge on mental health has gained unprecedented importance.
There are a variety of approaches to improving mental health, including psychosocial interventions, prevention programs, and the integration of mental health services into educational systems. Additionally, the importance of a need for multisectoral collaboration involving education, healthcare, and families, as well as training and capacity building for education and health professionals has altered the ways in which mental health is approached. This comprehensive approach aims to reduce the incidence of mental disorders, promote a supportive environment for recovery and psychological well-being, and inspire policymakers, researchers, and professionals to adopt innovative and effective methods in educational mental health.
