Abstract
Based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially the third point, namely "Good Health and Well-Being" to create a healthy and prosperous society, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is necessary to deliver fast and accurate information, one of which is educating the public. META WING (Mental Health Awareness during Pandemic) webinar is a community service activity that aims to increase public knowledge, understanding, and awareness regarding mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. Webinars are conducted virtually (online) by utilizing video conferencing technology. The mental health themes discussed in the webinar are insecurity, suicidal thoughts, and self-harm. Achievement results regarding whether there is an increase in public knowledge about mental health during the pandemic are measured by comparing the values obtained through pre-test and post-test. 43.24% of all participants got a post-test score higher than the pre-test and the statistical test results obtained a p-value of 0.000 which means that there is a significant difference between the value of understanding before the presentation and the value of understanding after the presentation.
