A complex systems approach towards REsilient and CONNECTED vulnerable European communities in times of change

欧洲正面临着数字化、移民和气候变化等一系列全球性挑战，这些挑战增加了对公民韧性的要求，并使他们面临发展心理健康问题的风险。RECONNECTED通过开发和测试数字支持系统来应对这一问题，该系统旨在提高复原力，并将社会弱势社区的弱势公民联系起来，并评估这是否会改善公民的心理健康，提高心理健康意识，减少耻辱感，并提高社会参与度，并以可负担的实施成本。采取复杂系统的方法，该项目将首先扩展和测试最近开发的城市心理健康的理论综合框架，包括全球转型的心理健康反应。这将提供一个很好的理解如何在个人，社会，环境和社会层面的风险和保护因素动态地相互作用，并对心理健康的影响。该框架将为政策决策提供可采取行动的见解，并将用于开发一个支持系统，其中包括同时针对个人和社会层面的干预工具。该平台将与9个欧洲国家的当地社区利益攸关方共同创建。这些干预措施将是非污名化和赋权的，并适合当地社区的需要。RECONNECTED将在这些社区测试支持系统的可行性和有效性，并在最后阶段制定实施方案，平衡有效性与效率和可扩展性，为整个欧洲的政策决策提供信息。该项目的方法论方法是理论和数据驱动的，我们将在整个项目中使用共同创造，以确保可操作的见解和干预工具对最终用户和其他利益相关者来说是相关的，可接受的和道德的。

Europe is facing a number of global challenges such as digitalisation, migration, and climate change which increase demands on citizens’resilience and puts them at risk of developing mental health problems. RECONNECTED responds to this problem by developingand testing a digital support system to promote resilience and connect vulnerable citizens in socially disadvantaged communities andevaluate whether this results in citizens’ improved mental health, increased mental health awareness, reduced stigma, and improvedsocial participation, at affordable costs for implementation. Taking a complex systems approach, the project will first extend and test arecently developed theoretical integrative framework of urban mental health to include mental health responses to global transitions. This will provide a good understanding of how risk and protective factors at the individual, social, environmental, and societal levels interact dynamically and impact on mental health. The framework will provide actionable insights for policy decision making and will be used to develop a support system with intervention tools targeting individual and social levels simultaneously. The platform will be co-created with stakeholders in the local community in nine European countries. These interventions will be non-stigmatising and empowering and tailored to the needs of the local community. RECONNECTED will test the feasibility and effectiveness of the support system in these communities and, in the final stage, develop implementation scenarios that balance effectiveness with efficiency and scalability to inform policy decision making that can be used throughout Europe. The methodological approach in the project is theory-informed and data-driven, and we will use co-creation throughout the project to ensure that actionable insights and intervention tools are relevant, acceptable, and ethical to end-users and other stakeholders.
