Thanks to intensive discussions with various federal agencies and authorities different MHPSS projects could be set up and co-financed with federal funds (eg PM+).
The MHPSS Focal Point also launched an impulse program to finance the multiplication of low-threshold MHPSS services, quality assurance measures and the development of trainings for staff and volunteers. Thanks to the coordination and harmonization of projects via the Focal Point, synergies could be made more visible and utilized efficiently.
Moreover, to address the gap in MHPSS services in Switzerland, the SRC has developed a low-threshold, digital service with psychological and psychosocial support for refugees. The guided self-help app was developed with the involvement of the target group and in collaboration with various humanitarian actors in Switzerland.

5. Han incidido los empeños contenidos en esta resolución en las comunidades a las que el Estado/la Sociedad Nacional/la institución presta servicios?
SíDescriba las repercusiones:
In the course of the implementation of the respective resolution, numerous new low-threshold services for vulnerable target groups – especially refugees – were developed within the SRC and its cooperation system to guarantee the basic level of psychosocial support.
Further, more staff and volunteers across sectors were trained in basic PS and PFA skills so that more communities can be reached and served with basic or focused PSS or PFA and persons in need of more specialized MHPSS services can be identified and properly referred.
In addition, more emphasis was placed on the well-being of staff and volunteers. Trainings focusing on the factors that protect and promote their mental health and psychosocial well-being are being developed and/or promoted. The protection of the mental health and psychosocial well-being of staff and volunteers is vital to the provision of sustainable quality humanitarian services to the communities.
Moreover, thanks in part to the close cooperation with academia, the capacity in building evidence and learning related to MHPSS interventions was strengthened, which improved the efficiency and effectiveness of MHPSS with a view to reaching more people with appropriate mental health and psychosocial support.
Finally, the SRC repeatedly influenced national policy by advocating for the provision of a basic level of psychosocial support to the most vulnerable (e.g. unaccompanied refugee children) and people who are facing discrimination and exclusion.
