Revisión teórica acerca de la relación entre la educación y la salud mental en Colombia

Abstract

Mental health has one of the greatest and most constant struggles to earn a place in this century in all fields of action that concern it. Likewise, education takes years of constant struggles against what they represent and the right that everyone should have according to universal human rights. This article intends a review from the theory and supported by research to show the importance of the relationship between both variables in our country and how their union could make a difference in many aspects of our country. It highlights the progress that has been made so far in both and the results that have been achieved by breaking down the barriers that have been presented for centuries. But likewise, a call is made to all mental health professionals to be part of the educational processes and to contribute from our work in education and its processes. The relationship between both variables would represent an important change in the mental health of Colombians.
