Awareness policies in Mental Health are acquiring a fundamental role in health promotion strategies in Western countries. In recent years institutional campaigns are more and more frequent in their attempts to change the perception of mental disorders.
The Andalusian Regional Government, as stated in the Comprehensive Mental Health Plan for Andalusia (Southern Spain), carries out its own awareness programmes on mental disorders and people suffering from them. The main goals are promotion of a cultural change in favour of inclusion in communal life, erradication of discrimination, fear and disinformation, and reducing barriers that hinder treatment and aid by means of making available more knowledge of the frequency of mental disorders, their treatment possibilities, the recovery process and the rights of people with mental disorders.
