YO. INTRODUCTION
To address the situational diagnosis of mental health in Peru, this concept
must first be defined. Currently, health is not understood as the absence
of diseases only. The World Health Organization has defined mental
health as the state of well-being that allows each individual to realize his
or her potential, cope with life's usual difficulties, work productively and
fruitfully, and contribute to his or her community. So, mental health
problems include not only mental disorders but also serious psychosocial
problems, such as various types of violence; which generate
consequences that, if not addressed, will contribute to reproducing this
problem from generation to generation.

The plan is based on information about mental health disorders and

problems, prioritized according to their prevalence. Assuming that the
etiology of mental disorders is multifactorial, emphasis has been placed
on social determinants, which we consider to be important both for the
expression of mental disorders themselves, and in the genesis of the
identified psychosocial problems.

II.- JUSTIFICATION

Prevention and promotion interventions in mental health are effective and

have translated into benefits for health and society. With strategies to
improve the effectiveness and efficiency of these interventions,
emphasizing the role of health professionals.

Based on the Ottawa charter of health promotion, mental health

promotion activities entail the creation of individual, social and
environmental conditions that allow optimal psychological and
psychophysiological development to improve quality of life. For its part,
the prevention of mental disorders is based on public health principles
and is characterized by its focus on reducing risk factors and promoting
protective factors related to a mental disorder or behavioral problem, with
the aim ultimate goal of reducing its prevalence and incidence.

The classification of prevention in public health - primary, secondary and

tertiary prevention - has been adapted by the Institute of Medicine for the
prevention of mental disorders. Although mental health prevention and
promotion have sometimes been considered two different approaches, the
two share structural analogies, a functional relationship, and a common
goal: Improving mental health.

Still today there is, unfortunately, a reservation about whether preventive

and promotional approaches can contribute to a reduction in the burden
and costs of mental illness. Likewise, it is important and helpful for
human beings to take time for meditation and in this way manage to
prevent stress from entering the body. Finally, this activity plan for the
mental health day will promote mental well-being and will allow people
to face activities in a productive way, it will provide an emotional,
psychological and social balance with what we deal with every day in
our lives.
