Mental Health in an Unequal World
This year's theme set by the is 'Mental Health in an Unequal World'.
Did you know
- 75% to 95% of people with mental disorders in low and middle-income countries are unable to access mental health services, and access in high income countries is not much better.
- Lack of investment in mental health disproportionate to the overall health budget contributes to the mental health treatment gap.
- 2020 highlighted inequalities due to race and ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender identity and the lack of respect for human rights in many countries, including for people living with mental health conditions.
- Inequality causes poor mental health, which in turn can often perpetuate poor mental health.
We want to be part of the change by making mental health a priority and addressing mental health in an unequal world.
