Je li mentalno zdravlje Europe još uvijek u krizi?

Mentalno zdravlje u Europi nalazi se na kritičnom raskrižju. Iako su se neki pokazatelji poboljšali od pandemije, novo izvješće Eurofounda otkriva zabrinjavajuće trendove, uključujući alarmantno zaustavljanje desetljećima dugog pada stope samoubojstava. U ovoj epizodi Eurofoundovih razgovora Mary McCaughey razgovara s višim voditeljem istraživanja Hansom Duboisom o ovom složenom problemu, ističući da loše mentalno zdravlje nesrazmjerno pogađa ranjive skupine.
