A European study on mental health needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step of the project consisted of conducting a <strong data-start=\"690\" data-end=\"708\">needs analysis<\/strong> within the VET sector.<br data-start=\"731\" data-end=\"734\">This study, carried out among trainers and young learners, identified key <strong data-start=\"808\" data-end=\"833\">vulnerability factors<\/strong> and <strong data-start=\"838\" data-end=\"855\">action levers<\/strong> to support mental well-being.<br data-start=\"885\" data-end=\"888\">The results served as the foundation for the design of the educational tools developed throughout the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Two guides on mental health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on the study\u2019s findings, two <strong data-start=\"1080\" data-end=\"1104\">complementary guides<\/strong> were developed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><p data-start=\"1126\" data-end=\"1253\"><strong data-start=\"1126\" data-end=\"1146\">Prevention Guide<\/strong>: provides concrete benchmarks, early warning signs, and simple strategies to act before a crisis occurs<\/p><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><p data-start=\"1126\" data-end=\"1253\"><strong data-start=\"1256\" data-end=\"1275\" style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">Promotion Guide<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">: encourages practices that foster mental health, such as open dialogue, recognition of emotions, and the creation of a positive environment.<\/span><\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These two guides complement each other: one anticipates difficulties, while the other builds a protective and caring atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. A training course for learners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using the guides as a foundation, a <strong data-start=\"1634\" data-end=\"1663\">training kit for learners<\/strong> was designed.<br data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1680\">This resource offers a <strong data-start=\"1703\" data-end=\"1733\">step-by-step learning path<\/strong>, including interactive modules, exercises, and practical case studies.<br data-start=\"1804\" data-end=\"1807\">It aims to <strong data-start=\"1818\" data-end=\"1853\">transform knowledge into action<\/strong>, empowering professionals with the tools and confidence to support young people experiencing distress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. An interactive digital tool \u2013 the MIND narrative game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fourth output of the project is the <strong data-start=\"2069\" data-end=\"2097\">interactive digital tool<\/strong>, the <strong data-start=\"2103\" data-end=\"2126\">MIND narrative game<\/strong>.<br data-start=\"2127\" data-end=\"2130\">This online platform explores four modules \u2014 <strong data-start=\"2175\" data-end=\"2219\">emotion, daily life, anxiety, and stress<\/strong> \u2014 to help users better understand mental health and discover useful techniques for self-care.<br data-start=\"2313\" data-end=\"2316\">Thanks to its narrative format, navigation becomes immersive: users make choices, follow storylines, and live a truly engaging experience.<br data-start=\"2454\" data-end=\"2457\">The tool is available in <strong data-start=\"2482\" data-end=\"2499\">six languages.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.
