| Summary: | In this document, we present an analysis of the decrees issued by the national government of Colombia from March 15º to December 31º in 2020. We also analyzed the Colombian risk and disaster management law (Law 1523 of 2012) to estimate whether the approach to the COVID19 pandemic from a comprehensive risk management perspective and incorporating elements related to mental health due to its possible psychosocial impacts. The decrees evidenced the measures taken by the national government facing the COVID-19 emergency and how biological risks were managed. We explored keywords in the text of the decrees, such as mental health, well-being, and psychological well-being. Next, we analyzed the characteristics of law 1523, its actors, and responsibilities in case of disasters, all to determine how much mental health is taken into account in the laws in Colombia. Once the analysis was carried out, gaps were established such as the non-consideration of biological threats explicitly in the law and the low relevance of mental health in both the risk management law and the presidential decrees issued for the management of the pandemic in 2020. It is considered important to make mental health visible in Colombian laws as well as the implementation of measures that guarantee their attention, taking into account the articulation of the decisions of the Ministries of Education, Health and Social Protection in the implementation of mitigation and knowledge of the risks, guaranteeing the collective well-being of Colombians |
