World Mental Health Day highlights
The big event for mental health is part of the SuperM’s urgent need to address the chronic under-investment in the world’s mental health commemoration. Through the event, the WHO will also be highlighting the pressing need for change and existing high rates of mental disorders, alongside more issues.
Also highlighted in the event is sharing experiences and advice of people who have dealt with similar struggles. And to maximize the experience, through live Q&A sessions on social media, the campaign will encourage the audience to share their stories.
We are thrilled to have @SuperM joining our Big Event for Mental Health on #WorldMentalHealthDay!
