Global Campaign Launched to Prioritise the Mental Health of Health Professionals on World Mental Health Day


This World Mental Health Day, United for Global Mental Health, Africa CDC, the International Council of Nurses (ICN), and the International Federation of Medical Students’ Associations (IFMSA) are launching a global campaign to call for more global attention on the mental health needs of health workers worldwide.

The campaign seeks to amplify the voices of frontline health professionals and future health professionals, (global medical and nursing students), to raise awareness about the factors that make health workers particularly vulnerable to mental ill-health.
