Aims
The burden of mental health disorders is increasingly rising on a global scale. Rather than the ongoing cumbersome organizational model of health service delivery, a struggle is required that penetrates the community through family physicians and reaches the micro-capillaries of society.
Objectives
Inviting young family physicians who have become active within EYFDM to the field of mental health work, and carrying out scientific, educational, and social projects through the established network.

Plans for the upcoming year
Our first goal for next year is to include physicians who have a desire to work in the field of mental health into our team. By enhancing the quality of our human resources with the professional development opportunities offered by EYFDM, we aim to improve community mental health parameters through local and international projects that are encouraged by policymakers at the European continent level.
Ongoing projects
Our study on family physicians’ levels of mental stress and lifestyle parameters, conducts scientific research on patients’ shared decision-making tendencies, ego states, and the medico-legal context of mental disorders. In the new period, we are in the pre-preparation stage of projects aimed at preventing suicide attempts and organising community-based mental health services.
