MINDHEALTH – Newsletter Announcement

Dear ENMHP Newsletter Recipients,

The MindHealth project (funded under the Leonardo Lifelong Learning Programme) has developed an initial version of an e-learning course which aims to support practitioners in understanding, planning and implementing mental health promotion initiatives in their organisation.

The MindHealth course addresses the three settings schools, workplaces and older people’s residences with an emphasis on organisational activities.

A comprehensive common module provides an introduction to the general topic of mental health promotion, highlights its underlying principles, outlines scopes of action and key areas as well as and introduces cornerstones of implementing MHP initiatives. In addition, the setting-specific modules provide tailored information to practitioners in each of the settings.

The MindHealth Project Team would like to invite you to have a look at the course and provide feedback from your professional point of view – whether you may have experience in the field of mental health promotion, training and other relating areas.

In order to access the course please register to become a member of the ENMHP website and inform Ms. Rena Hohenstein (hohenstein.rena@baua.bund.de) to be granted access.

Please click here to access the questionnaire.

The questionnaire implemented online is for obtaining feedback from users who are not yet acquainted with the topic of mental health promotion. Therefore we would like to ask you to only use the link mentioned above.

We value your feedback and look forward to hear about your comments.

New Mental Health Promotion Portal Launch

The recently finished ProMenPol Project had developed one of the most visited mental health promotion websites in Europe. Regularly visited by thousands of people per month, its functionality of tools and methods for mental health promotion across the lifecycle is to be maintained and augmented with the launch of a new mental health promotion portal on October 28th 2010.

This Portal will extend the range of information available on the ProMenPol website to include a site dedicated to e-learning in relation to mental health promotion and a site dedicated to supporting the implementation of mental health promotion in the schools, workplace and older people's residence settings.

The structure of the new portal is:

ENMHP: European Network for Mental Health Promotion (ENMHP). This site will act as an umbrella for mental health promotion websites. It will also build on the network of more that 800 mental health promotion professionals to create what is planned as the largest network dedicated to mental health promotion in Europe and elsewhere.
ProMenPol: This site will contain all of the material and tools developed within the lifetime of the ProMenPol Project and beyond. It will continue to be updated for the next three years.
Mind-Health:. This site is dedicated to providing training in mental health promotion via an e-learning package that is under development. The first version of this package will be available before the end of 2010.
MHP-Hands: This site is dedicated to the development and testing of a set of implementation manuals for mental health promotion. Its aim is to support the practice of mental health promotion in the field.

During the ProMenPol project, a Newsletter was produced on a quarterly basis. This newsletter will continue over the next 3 years but will be re-branded as the ENMHP newsletter. It will continue to provide you with news and views from around Europe in relation to mental health promotion and it will continue to allow you as members of the network to continue to contribute material.

We hope that you will like the new website and that you will be interested in the new material being developed. The ENMHP Team look forward to building our relationship with you over the coming years.

On behalf of the Project Team:

Dr. Richard Wynne, Work Research Centre: Email: r [dot] wynne [at] wrc-research.ie
