Montserrat Escuté Amat, a nurse and assistant to the Nursing Directorate of the Parc Sanitari Sant Joan de Déu, shares her vision on what aspects need further investment to guarantee equal opportunities, recovery and inclusion for people with mental health disorders.

For Escuté, it is essential to "continue betting on and investing in promotion, prevention and early education in both health and social matters, to end stigma and discrimination and to continue creating communication strategies in which the first person is the protagonist."

"Mental health involves everyone," explains Montserrat Escuté, "no matter who you are or what you have."
