×I7. Using participatory for Systems Modelling: Human mental health systems

A growing number of research interest in systems thinking in mental health in the workplace and public health policy indicates the complexity of the issues. Often, these issues involve not only the participants but also policymakers and health practitioners.

The proposed session will focus on modelling human mental health (at the workplace and public health) systems using principles of systems thinking. In this session, we encourage the submission of research papers that:

• Highlight the development and use of integrated models for exploring, evaluating, and managing mental health systems at the workplace and/or at the public health system.
• Participation/collaboration of researchers from diverse domains, decision-makers and (other) stakeholders.

Key topics: Mental health, Systems thinking, System dynamics
