The Mental Health Forum provides an opportunity to bring together stakeholders working on mental health-related issues to exchange ideas, collaborate, and learn from each other. The theme for this year’s Mental Health Forum —Time to Act: transforming mental health systems, doing more and better— reflects the urgent need to act in order to make mental health a core area of renewed investment during and beyond the pandemic. This year’s World Health Assembly urged Member States to develop and strengthen comprehensive mental health services and psychosocial support as part of universal health coverage, with a particular focus on improving understanding of mental health conditions and the needs of vulnerable populations and scaling-up the use of innovative technologies.
