I honestly believe that the Mental Health Strategy for the UN Uniformed Personnel and the accompanying mobile app are very useful and essential endeavours to help some silent sufferers among peacekeepers. I would like to assure you of my utmost support in taking this further.

We are confident that the MENTAL HEALTH STRATEGY for UN Uniformed Personnel digital platform, set to be released soon, will be a resounding success. We believe in its potential to significantly aid UN Peacekeepers and Armed Forces personnel worldwide in maintaining their mental well-being.

The Mental Health Strategy for UN Uniformed Personnel uses a colour-coded model to provide precise and simple methods for detecting significant mental health changes. The annexes cover all the topics/issues related to mental health that our medical personnel and leaders can use. Hopefully, the apps can be released soon, as they will greatly help us survey our personnel and mental health issues before they worsen.
