心理健康——一项基本的普遍人权

Mental Health — a foundational and universal human right

< Nature - Mental Health> 1 (10), 2023

【社论-摘要】心理健康与身体健康一样，是人类状况的一个固有且普遍的方面。 纪念世界心理健康日提醒人们，心理健康不仅仅是个人关注的问题，也是集体关注的问题，与改善心理健康和存在、可持续发展和人权的更广泛追求密切相关。

世界心理健康日由非政府组织世界精神卫生联合会（WFMH）于1992年设立，每年定于10月10日庆祝。庆祝活动的目的是提高全球对心理健康问题的认识，并倡导整体福祉的根本重要性。这一年度活动也得到了联合国（UN）的认可和推动，成为公开对话、教育和消除心理健康状况污名化的平台。今年，它提出了一个强有力的主题：“心理健康是一项普遍人权”。这强调了这样一个事实：达到一个人的最佳心理健康标准不应该是少数人的特权，而应该是所有人的权利，并且是过上充实生活的组成部分。在国际背景下，世界心理健康日倡导保护和促进个人心理健康和福祉，并更加重视创建支持心理健康公平和平等的社区和社会。

[Editorial-Abstract] Mental health, like physical health, is an intrinsic and universal aspect of the human condition. The observance of World Mental Health Day is a reminder that mental health is not just an individual concern but a collective one, deeply intertwined with the broader pursuit of improved mental health and being, sustainable development, and human rights.

Celebrated each year on 10 October, World Mental Health Day was established in 1992 by the non-governmental organization World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH). Its observance was designed with the goal of raising global awareness about mental health issues and to advocate for the fundamental importance of overall wellbeing. This annual event, which is also endorsed and promoted by the United Nations (UN), serves as a platform for open dialog, education and the destigmatization of mental health conditions. This year, it carries a powerful theme: ‘Mental health is a universal human right’. This underscores the fact that the attainment of one’s best standard of mental health should not be a privilege reserved for the few but a right extended to all humans and integral to leading a fulfilling life. In an international context, World Mental Health Day advocates for the protection and promotion of individual mental health and wellbeing and greater emphasis on creating communities and societies that espouse mental health equity and equality.
