- success:
- On the SFHA project, post training survey results from mental health awareness raising sessions show willingness by participants to listen to and talk about mental health issues with colleagues and managers, and to look for mental health professional support increased from about 30% to about 90%
- context:
- The double crisis in Myanmar of COVID-19 and the military coup has caused a great deal of stress and mental health issues among the population. At the same time, mental health issues are still stigmatised in Myanmar and seeking treatment is not normalised.
- description:
- The mental health of workers suffers in contexts of instability and conflict. Training programs aimed at supporting mental health at work can provide useful tools for coping and resilience skills among people in the context of an OSH agenda.
- administrative_issues:
- The ILO needs to develop partnerships with qualified and skilled mental health training providers in a way that adheres to the Do-no-harm principle. It may be challenging to proceed with implementation at the current time.
