WHO calls for better depression awareness www.en.montsame.mn
Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ On April 7, World Health Day which was themed 'Depression: Let’s Talk', the World Health Organization in cooperation with the Ministry of Health organized a meeting at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Health Minister A.Tsogtsetseg was present at the meeting and remarked, “Mental health especially concerning depression is everyone’s problem to certain extent. We will work with the World Health Organization in realizing the objectives set by its Comprehensive mental health action plan 2013-2020”.
It is considered that mental illness awareness rate isn’t particularly high in Mongolia. On average, National Center for Mental Health of Mongolia renders assistance to some 40 thousand people a year, 6 thousand of whom receive in-hospital treatment. In that, some 1800-2000 patients were diagnosed with depression and other similar problems.
During the ‘Depression: Let’s Talk’ meeting, a documentary made with the support of the World Health Organization reflecting the state and consequences of depression in Mongolian society was screened.
