Abstract

Aim

Adolescent mental ill-health is a common international challenge affecting both high- and lower-middle-income countries. The Republic of the Philippines enacted its first mental health law in 2019, underlining the importance of the promotion of adolescent mental health education in schools. In Japan, course instructions about mental ill-health were formulated in a Course of Study that reflects governmental curriculum guidelines. Embedded since 2022, the Course of Study aimed to promote an understanding of current issues of adolescent health. The National Center for Global Health and Medicine in Japan has been sharing experience of promoting public health practices and advancing medical technology in low- and middle-income countries, especially in the Western Pacific region. This paper describes the development process and content of these resources by an interdisciplinary team from Japan and the Philippines.

Methods

The interdisciplinary team created an embedded mental health education programme using animated videos for the Philippine school curriculum to improve mental health literacy in adolescents.

Results

Two six-minute animated videos of age-relevant stories were created. The animation scenarios illustrate: 1) mental health problems and recovery; and 2) major symptoms of mental illnesses, including depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia. Each animated video presents several items for discussion among students and/or teachers, both in class and online for students unable to attend school.

Conclusion

Our efforts may provide good opportunities for enhancing adolescents' mental health activities in the Philippines. In the following steps, we should investigate the effectiveness of school-based MHL using these animated videos with rigorous evaluation methods.

采用国际跨学科方法编制视频教育材料，在菲律宾青少年中推广心理健康知识。

目的：青少年心理不健康是影响高收入和中低收入国家的共同国际挑战。菲律宾共和国于 2019 年颁布了第一部心理健康法，强调了在学校促进青少年心理健康教育的重要性。在日本，有关心理健康问题的课程说明被纳入了反映政府课程指导方针的 "学习课程"。该课程自 2022 年开始实施，旨在促进对当前青少年健康问题的了解。日本国家全球健康与医学中心一直在中低收入国家，特别是西太平洋地区分享促进公共卫生实践和推动医疗技术发展的经验。本文介绍了来自日本和菲律宾的跨学科团队开发这些资源的过程和内容：方法：跨学科团队利用菲律宾学校课程中的动画视频制作了一个嵌入式心理健康教育课程，以提高青少年的心理健康素养：结果：制作了两个六分钟的动画视频，讲述了与年龄相关的故事。结果：制作了两部六分钟的动画视频，讲述了与年龄相关的故事：1) 心理健康问题和康复；2) 精神疾病的主要症状，包括抑郁症、焦虑症和精神分裂症。每个动画视频都提供了几个供学生和/或教师讨论的项目，既可以在课堂上讨论，也可以在网上供无法到校的学生讨论：我们的努力可能会为加强菲律宾青少年的心理健康活动提供良好的机会。在接下来的工作中，我们应采用严格的评估方法，调查使用这些动画视频开展校本心理健康活动的效果。
