In preparation for World Mental Health Day on 10 October 2023, Butterfly Cameroon has been actively involved in raising awareness since October 9 during a dedicated sports walk.
A highlight was an awareness-raising activity in Meri, at the Regional Center of the National Committee for Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration, in collaboration with the International Organization for Migration (IOM), focusing on mental health, including mental hygiene, warning signs of mental problems, and the theme of World Mental Health Day.
At the same time, awareness-raising activities were carried out at Maroua Regional Hospital, in partnership with International Medical Corps (IMC), Asgara, Unipsy and Opsycours. These discussions helped raise awareness of the importance of mental health.
The active participation of Butterfly Cameroon trainees played a key role in the success of these activities, highlighting the importance of mental health as a universal human right and reinforcing the association’s commitment to this crucial cause.
