Résumé
To develop a gender sensitivity index and analyse the regional mental health plans in force in 2021 in terms of their gender sensitivity. We reviewed the regional mental health plans in force in 2021 using an ad hoc questionnaire design based on a review of documents and reports on gender sensitivity in health policies. We construct an index based on both the symbolic and operative sensibility of plans. Of the seven plans reviewed, four scored less than 13 out of 26. The maximum score was 18 and the minimum 2. Symbolic gender sensitivity was higher than operational sensitivity. Mental health plans have a low or very low degree of gender sensitivity. Not considering gender as a determinant of mental health in the formulation of specific health plans may reduce the effectiveness of interventions aimed at reducing gender inequalities in mental health.
