Estonia – Emergencies preparedness: Mental Health and Psychosocial Support

The Ministry of Social Affairs of Estonia has been making substantial efforts to strengthen its mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) services, in collaboration with the World Health Organization and other partners.
See how Estonia sets a powerful example of how capacity building can improve MHPSS preparedness and strengthen national mental health systems. WHO is collaborating with other Member States and partners regionally and globally to integrate MHPSS into all emergency preparedness plans and to enhance the capacity of systems and services to deliver quality mental health services ready for any challenge.
