"We equip teachers with skills to support children's psychosocial wellbeing for the holistic development of the child"- @LuweddeShakirah our Child Protection and Psychosocial Support Specialist shares during the panel discussion at the 4th Mental Health Awareness Camp organised by the Parliamentary Forum on Mental Health happening @Parliament_Ug .
"My recommendation to policymakers is to intentionally integrate mental health support into teacher training curricula at the college level. Equipping teachers with the knowledge and skills to promote mental health from the start of their professional journey will enable them to confidently integrate these practices into their classrooms, fostering supportive learning environments that enhance both student wellbeing and learning outcomes."- @LuweddeShakirah
