— United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals, Goal 3 "Good Health and Well-being," Target 4

/ Project Background /

With the acceleration of life and work rhythms and the intensification of social competition, the psychological pressure on citizens has significantly increased, highlighting mental health issues among the population. Among these, the student population, a focal point of societal attention, faces increasing pressures related to academics and employment. Mental health problems are becoming increasingly prominent and are trending towards younger ages. Reports indicate that the depression detection rate among high school students exceeds 40%, junior high students exceeds 30%, and elementary school students exceeds 10%.

Additionally, according to field research conducted by UNITAR CIFAL Hubei, the issues faced by left-behind children require particular attention.

In some of the schools we surveyed, the lack of extracurricular courses and corresponding qualified teachers leads to students developing a dislike for school. At home, children whose parents are away lack care and companionship, often becoming addicted to electronic devices and developing mental health problems. These various real-life conditions cause these children to experience truancy, dropout, or even more severe situations, leading them to experience emotional emptiness at an earlier age.

/ Project Introduction /

In 2024, the UNITAR CIFAL Hubei (Hubei International Training Centres for Authorities and Leaders, UNITAR ) in collaborationwithNanjing Inspiring Sunshine HeartConnect Public Welfare Foundation, responds to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, specifically Goal 4 "Quality Education" and Goal 3 "Good Health and Well-being," by jointly launching the LNOB (Leave No One Behind) project.

To address the mental health issues of left-behind children and urban youth, UNITAR CIFAL Hubei initiates the LNOB project as the second public welfare activity following "You and My Holiday." They invite Xinxiang Psychological Counseling as a supporting organization to offer LNOB Public Mental Health Counseling Services. The project aims to provide professional and heartfelt psychological support to specific groups. Whether you are a family member caring for left-behind children or an urban junior high student navigating adolescence, we sincerely invite you to join our LNOB Public Mental Health Counseling activities.

We care about the growth of every child, especially those left in their hometowns due to parents working elsewhere. We provide a platform to help family members build closer emotional connections and promote the healthy development of children.
