Two themes seem to emerge repeatedly when reading through this
volume. One is 'consensus' and the other is 'search'. There was a
strong consensus during the Congress that children and families
were the major and foremost concern of all present, regardless of
their geographic origin or professional background. This concern
was often expressed in terms of commitment to or as goal for the
international mental health movement for the years to come. The
second theme, 'search', represents an effort to translate this
concern into activities: search for concrete, immediate goals, for
ways and means of translating into actual programs and projects,
for interested people to carry on the work and better ways to train
them to do the work well, for ways to obtain support, and lastly,
search for ways of coordinating efforts of people in different
parts of the world. All these and other matters are taken up in the
discussions in this volume. The complexity of problems encountered
in a rapidly changing world and the diversity of resources
available in different parts of the world, make the task of
searching difficult and sometimes confusing. In spite of the
earnest efforts made, the results may be inconclusive and some of
those pro posed can be regarded only as hypotheses or ideas for
experimentation."
