Promoting self-care and well-being through SanaMente during Mental Health Month
Published on December 7, 2023 by GlasswingOctober was World Mental Health Month, an opportunity to spotlight our conviction that “Mental health is global health, a universal right.” Throughout the month, we focused on expanding knowledge around mental health and encouraging actions to promote and safeguard mental health as a universal human right.
Through our SanaMente program, we conducted mental-health workshops in several countries.
In Colombia, we organized comprehensive wellness events for International Mental Health Day. These included:
- Educational games
- Rumba therapy
- Informative sessions to raise awareness about mental health and self-care
- A collaborative mural involving migrant populations, the host community, and partner organizations
In El Salvador and Honduras, we collaborated with universities and selected institutions from the Network and Complementary Support Services. We set up mental-health stations at fairs to promote strategies and techniques for self-care and healthy emotional management.
At Glasswing, we know that caring for mental health is crucial for a fulfilling life. Our initiatives focus on promoting mental health for both the individual and the community.
