Mental health promotion and intervention at work

In support of World Mental Health Day 2023, this webinar

• increases awareness of mental health promotion and suicide prevention in workplace settings
• presents the first results of a large-scale four-year international study

MENTUPP (Mental Health Promotion and Intervention in Occupational Settings) is a Horizon 2020 European-funded project. It is run by an international consortium of experts in mental health, suicide prevention, depression, stigma, occupational health, implementation science and health economics. It is developing, implementing and evaluating a multi-level intervention to promote mental wellbeing in the workplace. It addresses both clinical (depression and anxiety disorders) and non-clinical mental health issues (stress, burn-out, wellbeing, depressive symptoms). One of its aims is to reduce associated stigma in small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs).
