Sustainable mental health support requires collaboration across governments, healthcare systems, schools, civil society, and communities. Key actions include investing in accessible services, integrating mental health into education and primary healthcare, strengthening community support networks, promoting awareness, and developing policies that protect wellbeing and reduce barriers to care.

Reducing mental health stigma requires open conversations, mental health education, supportive workplaces and communities, and sharing lived experiences in safe spaces. Promoting empathy, challenging misconceptions, and ensuring accessible services can encourage early intervention and help-seeking before challenges escalate.

Peer support, community-based interventions, and youth-led initiatives create safe spaces for connection, understanding, and early support. They help reduce isolation, build resilience, encourage help-seeking, and ensure mental health programs are relevant, accessible, and responsive to the needs of communities, especially young people.

Q5.
What multi-sector approaches are needed from governments, healthcare systems, schools, civil society and communities to create sustainable mental health support systems?
Social, cultural, and economic factors significantly influence how people experience mental health challenges and whether they seek support. Stigma, cultural beliefs, financial barriers, and access to services can shape attitudes toward mental wellbeing and help-seeking behaviors. Addressing these factors is key to building inclusive and accessible mental health support systems.

People don’t talk about mental health… not because they don’t want to, but because they’re afraid to.”
Afraid of:
Judgment
Being misunderstood
Being called weak
So they stay silent… and suffer alone.
“Let’s create safe spaces.” Silence is not strength. #BreakTheSilence
