Riassunto

This title provides a comprehensive overview and practical guide to implementing mental health promotion programmes with different population groups across a range of settings. It shows how information from research can be used to inform programme development and best practice. The text is written from a 'how-to' perspective, combining an exploration of current research with practical advice to support the planning and implementation of programmes. The book provides examples of successful international programmes illustrating the process of implementation. Case studies of practical aspects of project development and delivery from different countries are included in order to illustrate the real life application of programmes.

Recensione

"How to do and deliver mental health promotion...Much more valuable is the inclusion of a comprehensive range of programmes from the peer-reviewed literature, with examples from many different countries in many different settings...The authors have provided a context for thinking about practice, rather than a series of interventions"
