Slide presentation of the webinar held on 15 July 2021.
The webinar provided an updated review on the challenges and opportunities for countries of the global South in sustaining delivery of child and adolescent mental health services in the context of COVID-19 and in the post-pandemic period. The session brought three case studies to promote country-to-country learning on experiences, lessons learnt, and practical knowledge to bolster MHPSS within primary health care, universal health care, and other health services. Also, the session intended to discuss how governments, development agencies, international organizations, and other stakeholders can build strong partnerships to leverage SSTC in advancing child and adolescent mental health in order to help countries of the global South “build back better” in the context of COVID-19 and similar global crises.
