This paper summarizes the current situation of mental health services in the Arab world. Out of 20 countries for which information is available, six do not have a mental health legislation and two do not have a mental health policy. Three countries (Lebanon, Kuwait and Bahrain) had in 2007 more than 30 psychiatric beds per 100,000 population, while two (Sudan and Somalia) had less than 5 per 100,000. The highest number of psychiatrists is found in Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait, while seven countries (Iraq, Libya, Morocco, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen) have less than 0.5 psychiatrists for 100,000 population. The budget allowed for mental health as a percentage from the total health budget, in the few countries where information is available, is far below the range to promote mental health services. Some improvement has occurred in the last decade, but the mental health human resources and the attention devoted to mental health issues are still insufficient.
本文总结了阿拉伯世界心理健康服务的现状。在有信息可查的 20 个国家中，有 6 个国家没有心理健康立法，有 2 个国家没有心理健康政策。2007 年，三个国家（黎巴嫩、科威特和巴林）每 10 万人拥有超过 30 张精神科床位，而两个国家（苏丹和索马里）每 10 万人拥有不到 5 张床位。卡塔尔、巴林和科威特拥有最多的精神科医生，而七个国家（伊拉克、利比亚、摩洛哥、索马里、苏丹、叙利亚和也门）每 10 万人中拥有的精神科医生不足 0.5 人。在有信息可查的少数几个国家中，用于精神卫生的预算占总卫生预算的百分比远远低于促进精神卫生服务的范围。在过去十年中，情况有所改善，但精神卫生人力资源和对精神卫生问题的关注仍然不足。
