Hello CIMSA! SCOPH CIMSA FK UNRI successfully carried out the MINDS-UP! (Mental Illness Needs Discussion and Support - Understanding & Prevention) activity on October 28th, 2023 in commemoration of World Mental Health Day. MINDS-UP! was held at live instagram @cimsaunri,  from 03.45 pm to 05.00 pm WIB.

MINDS UP was implemented to celebrate world mental health day and based on an assessment that we distributed via social media, most of the respondents were still taboo and had difficulty understanding mental illness. Apart from that, based on data from the Indonesia National Adolescent Mental Health Survey 2022, 15.5 million (34.9 percent) teenagers experience mental problems and 2.45 million (5.5 percent) teenagers experience mental disorders. Of that number, only 2.6 percent accessed counseling services, both emotional and behavioral. Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) 2018 shows that more than 19 million people aged over 15 years experience mental emotional disorders, and more than 12 million people aged over 15 years experience depression. Therefore, SCOPH CIMSA FK UNRI was held MINDS UP! to increase awareness of the general public regarding mental health.

Before MINDS-UP was held, OC's had received training from the Public Health Leader SCOPH CIMSA, namely Faradhifa Karima Ardianti with the material theme about “Mental Illness” which was held on October 13th, 2023 at 19.00 pm WIB. Apart from that, it is also hoped that OC's who are medical students can become role models for efforts to prevent mental illness. After MINDS-UP Training Pre-activity was held, SCOPH CIMSA UNRI invited CIMSA FK UNRI Trainer and Member SCOPH CIMSA FK UNRI, namely Yogi Amorega S.Ked and Luciana Stephany to provide information related to Mental Health in a talk show on Radio RRI Pro 2 Pekanbaru which was held on October 12th, 2023 at 16.00 pm WIB.  The proudest thing is that the air campaign participant achievement target exceeded the minimum target of 139 participants from the initial target of 50 participants, through publications made on instagram @cimsaunri. The next activity flow is posting national poster competition on Instagram @cimsaunri. The competition was attended by 139 participants and there were 3 winners which we published on instagram @cimsaunri.
