This Continental Strategy on Mental Health and Psychosocial Support for Teachers in Africa (CSMHPSS) provides guidance on how to contribute to better mental health and psychosocial support for teachers. The strategy was prepared under the leadership of the African Union’s (AU) Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (ESTI) Department alongside the Continental Education Strategy for Africa 2026-2035 (CESA 26-35). CSMHPSS aims to provide a systematic and harmonized approach towards promoting the mental health and well-being of teachers and educators, preventing mental disorders, facilitating care, enhancing the social and emotional wellbeing of educators, and promoting psychosocial support and recovery of those that had significant impacts and challenges. By improving the mental health and psychosocial well-being of teachers and teacher educators, this strategy contributes to the achievement of education goals across the continent.
