Positive Mental Health

An evidence based approach for the European Youth Sector

The Project

In this 18-month project the six project partners develop a series of intellectual outputs. 
The milestones of the project are shown above. 

The project aims to promote positive mental health practices in youth work settings by developing a framework, practical tools and pilot training for promoting the mental health and wellbeing of young people (16 – 25 years). The objectives are:

  1. to develop an evidence based theoretical and methodological integrative framework for youth workers that can be used for the promotion of positive mental health of young people aged 16-25y.
  2. to develop an innovative and tested multidisciplinary curriculum that can be used by youth workers/trainers and their organisations for the promotion of PMH.
  3. Improve the competences of youth workers/trainers for working on the promotion of PMH.
  4. Raise awareness on the importance of PMH and reduction of the stigmatization thereof.
  5. Develop a network of organisations that are actively involved in the promotion of PMH of young people.
