The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently published a comprehensive manual on implementing psychological interventions. This newly-released resource provides managers and service providers with practical guidance on how to integrate evidence-based psychological interventions for adults, adolescents, and children, into existing services worldwide.
It does so by focusing on five key steps: make an implementation plan; adapt for context; prepare the workforce; identify, assess, and support potential beneficiaries; and monitor and evaluate the service.
This manual is an excellent resource for those looking to advance mental health service delivery. It offers a number of practical tips and tools to help plan, prepare, and provide psychological interventions within an existing service, as well as links to further resources that can support implementation.
