FARIA, Nicole Costa  e  RODRIGUES, Marisa Cosenza. Promotion and prevention in child mental health: educational implications. Psicol. educ. [online]. 2020, n.51, pp.85-96. ISSN 1414-6975.  https://doi.org/10.23925/2175-3520.2020i51p85-96.

In recent years, a new mental health paradigm has been consolidating, driven by new ways of understanding and intervening in health processes. A more comprehensive, contextualized, and focused on health process perspective gains strength, instead of a reductionist, institutionalizing one that emphasized the disease. In this context, mental health promotion and prevention practices gain space, which aim, respectively, to enhance psychological health and avoid the emergence of problems associated with it. Thus, this paper intends to discuss the educational implications of this new paradigm regarding the mental health of children and adolescents. Initially, a history of childhood mental health care in Brazil is drawn, evidencing a long period of neglect and marginalization in relation to this population. Subsequently, the assumptions underlying the actions of promotion and prevention in mental health and the role of the school in these processes are discussed. Finally, some review studies on prevention and promotion implementation programs in the school context are discussed. It is believed that the construction of strategies aimed at the promotion of mental health is a current challenge, especially in the educational context.
