dc.description.abstract Promoting mental health demands actions that improve resilience in individuals, families and communities, and ensure health enhancing policy and legislative frameworks. These actions are at the heart of human development and can assist in improving social and economic prospects for people in low- to middle income countries. The book provides a conceptual and theoretical base for the application of mental health promotion and prevention of mental disorders in low-resource settings - offering examples of evidence-based programmes across the lifespan. With contributions from a range of experts, this is a key text for students and practitioners, as well as for policy-makers and planners, in mental and public health. en
