EVALUATION OF UNICEF PROGRAMMES TO PROTECT CHILDREN IN EMERGENCIES: Synthesis Report
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines mental health as ‘a state of well-being in which the individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community’. Mental illn...ess refers to all of the diagnosable mental disorders, which are characterised by abnormalities in thinking, feelings or behaviours. Mental illness is closely related to vulnerability, both in its causes and in its effects.

substance abuse, to severe illnesses like psychosis.
