Mental disorders impose an enormous burden on society, accounting for almost one in three years lived with disability globally. •In addition to their health impact, mental disorders cause a significant economic burden due to lost economic output and the link between mental disorders and costly, po...tentially fatal conditions including cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, HIV, and obesity.•80% of the people likely to experience an episode of a mental disorder in their lifetime come from low- and middle-income countries.• Two of the most common forms of mental disorders, anxiety and depression, are prevalent, disabling, and respond to a range of treatments that are safe and effective.

Mental health problem is one of the growing major public health issues in the Asia Pacific region. It contributes to the high number of Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs), morbidity and mortality in the region. It is expected that leading mental health problems will occur in the low-and middle-i...ncome countries (LMICs) and majority of the countries which comes under this category are in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, mental health problem hamper the achievement of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), particularly MDG 1, MDG 4 and MDG 5. The most common mental health problems in the region are depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, suicidal behaviour and substance abuse disorder. Several modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors were identified for the cause of these major mental health issues.

Mit kinderfreundlichen Orten und Angeboten werden Räume und Beziehungsangebote geschaffen, in denen Kinder einfach wieder Kinder sein können. Im internationalen Kontext ist die Einrichtung von Child Friendly Spaces in Kriegs- und Krisenregionen fest etabliert. In einkommensstarken Ländern gibt es... jedoch kaum Dokumentationen darueber, wie kinderfreundliche Orte und Angebote umgesetzt werden können. Ziel der Studie ist es, praktische Einsichten und Erfahrungen mit der Umsetzung von kinderfreundlichen Orten und Angeboten in unterschiedlichen Arten von Flüchtlingsunterkünften zu vermitteln. Anhand von drei ausgewählten Unterkunftstypen zeigt die Studie, wie Aspekte kinderfreundlicher Orte und Angebote für geflüchtete und migrierte Menschen in Deutschland umgesetzt werden können.
