The ProMenPol project (funded under the FP6 Research Programme) aims to support the practices and policies of mental health promotion in the three settings of schools, workplaces and residential homes for older people. It will do so over the 2007-2009 period by:
Each year ProMenPol runs a practitioners conference that is followed by a policy workshop for national and European policy makers. This shall allow for mutual exchange of information concerning positive mental health between experts and for timely feedback to those responsible for designing services and policies.The second annual conference was successfully completed in Berlin on 19 and 20 June 2008. The results will be presented during our second policy workshop, which will be held on 11 December 2008 from 11:00 am to 03:00 pm in Brussels. Furthermore, we would like to discuss with you the future of the database of mental health promotion tools and the consequences of the recently launched European Mental Health Pact. You are cordially invited to join our debate! This conference is by invitation only. If you are interested in attending, please contact Rena Hohensteinn.
