Together, these groups will set goals with the aim of improving the mental wellbeing of children and adolescents. The initiative is being spearheaded by 12 different government departments, including the National Health Commission, the Publicity Department, and the National Radio and Television Administration. It also includes plans for the reduction of violent and pornographic content that it believes is causing an increase in mental disorders among minors.
Technode reports that the 'Healthy China 2030' initiative is a coming push to improve Chinese mental health through various measures affecting schools, mental health organizations, counseling, and educational initiatives. A new plan by the Chinese government may result in further crackdown on games and live streams with content considered to be violent or pornographic.
