Abstract

Our objective was to report experiences of the Interdisciplinary League in Mental Health (LISAM) regarding the use of digital tools for extension activities development. By establishing a link between university and society, academic leagues play an important role in health promotion. Nevertheless, due to the health crisis of the New Coronavirus face-to-face activities were suspended, so these extension projects had to reinvent themselves by creating new methodologies for virtual environments. In this regard, LISAM has committed itself to using digital platforms to publish posts, and making live broadcasts, online events, and podcasts as a method of providing support to the population in the midst of the pandemic, in addition to transmitting scientifically-based information. Therefore, social networks were an important field for continuing the university extension activities, becoming a complementary means for education and health care improvement.
