In Finland an organising committee with representatives from a range of institutions is responsible for overseeing activities to mark the Day. The committee is composed of public administrators from the social and health sector at the governmental and regional levels, local authorities and non-governmental mental health organisations. World Health Day in Finland will be marked by a national public festival on Saturday, April 7th, at the Finlandia House at 13.00. Many eminent speakers from different sectors of society will take part in the occasion. Taking responsibility for our own and our neighbours' welfare is the foundation of our mental health.
Mental health is an essential and indivisible part of health.
In Finland the day will be spent by discussing and highlighting good examples of comprehensive promotion of mental health.
