Je, utahudhuria wewe binafsi au mtandaoni? Hata hivyo unahudhuria, usajili ni bure kabisa . The Action Network imejitolea kufikiria upya mazingira ya afya ya akili duniani kote na kuhakikisha hakuna sauti inayoachwa nyuma .
Maombi ya ruzuku ya usafiri sasa yamefungwa. Waombaji wote watajulishwa mnamo Oktoba. Wagombea ambao hawajafaulu wataandikishwa kama washiriki wa mtandaoni, lakini pia watakuwa na chaguo la kutuma ombi la kujifadhili wenyewe.
Mkutano mkubwa zaidi wa afya ya akili duniani umekuwa mkubwa zaidi ! Tumejaza rasmi 100% ya nafasi zetu za kibinafsi. Lakini, kwa sababu ya mahitaji makubwa , tunafungua nafasi za ziada kwa wanachama kujiunga nasi katika Jiji la Iloilo kwa tukio hili muhimu. Kwa kuwa hakuna ada ya usajili, watakaohudhuria wanaojifadhili watahitaji tu kulipia safari zao za ndege, malazi na gharama za maisha kwa muda wote wa safari hii. Tunakadiria gharama za hoteli kati ya PHP 3,000-5,000 ($50-90) kwa usiku .
The Philippines has made incredible progress in mental health, from upgraded legislation, to leading digital innovations and significant government funding commitments. There’s so much we can learn from these achievements, as well as the country’s traditional and local approaches to power sharing, healing and community development. Iloilo City is the perfect place to showcase them.
Iloilo is a bold and meaningful choice. The city is known for its progressive approach to sustainability, climate action, and mental health education in schools. It is deeply rooted in history, with preserved heritage sites, and an exciting food scene that landed it the prestigious title of 'UNESCO City of Gastronomy' in 2023. We look forward to welcoming you to the Philippines' 'City of Love' next year!
Ufilipino imepata maendeleo ya ajabu katika afya ya akili, kutoka kwa sheria iliyoboreshwa, hadi uvumbuzi bora wa kidijitali na ahadi muhimu za ufadhili za serikali. Kuna mengi sana tunaweza kujifunza kutokana na mafanikio haya, pamoja na mbinu za kitamaduni na za kienyeji za kugawana madaraka, uponyaji na maendeleo ya jamii. Iloilo City ndio mahali pazuri pa kuwaonyesha.
Iloilo ni chaguo la ujasiri na la maana. Jiji linajulikana kwa mbinu yake ya maendeleo ya uendelevu, hatua ya hali ya hewa, na elimu ya afya ya akili shuleni. Imekita mizizi katika historia, ikiwa na tovuti za urithi zilizohifadhiwa, na eneo la kusisimua la chakula ambalo liliipa jina la kifahari la 'UNESCO City of Gastronomy' mnamo 2023. Tunatazamia kukukaribisha Ufilipino' 'Jiji la Upendo' mwaka ujao!

This session spotlights locally-led mental health work in the Philippines, examining how community-driven advocacy, service delivery, and policy engagement respond to lived realities shaped by crises, inequalities, and persistent systemic gaps. Drawing on experiences from government, civil society, professional associations, service users, and international partners, the discussion surfaces practical lessons on centering persons with lived experience, navigating systemic barriers, and advancing mental health outcomes within complex policy environments. Through a mix of short inputs, guided reflection, interactive map, and audience exchange, the session situates local initiatives within national and global mental health agendas while drawing out transferable insights for advocates and practitioners working in other countries and regional contexts.

The UN High-Level Meeting (HLM) was a historic milestone, but the urgency to turn political declarations post-HLM into action has never been greater. Seizing this critical momentum, this panel session brings together experts from WHO, UNICEF, Wellcome, and national advocates to strategise in ensuring accountability and lasting reform. Together, we will discuss how governments, UN agencies, and civil society can transform commitments into meaningful and lasting reforms at every level. Join the conversation and directly ensure the post-HLM agenda stays globally relevant by filling our participant survey in this session.

This workshop will offer participants a focused opportunity to contribute their voices and experiences to the Geography of Stigma initiative. By surfacing lived experience examples from diverse regions, we will generate insights that highlight both the shared and unique ways mental health stigma manifests across the world. Facilitated by GMHAN’s Stigma and Discrimination Working Group, the advocacy messages and examples documented here will directly inform the development of the Geography of Stigma online portal and advocacy toolkit, ensuring these resources remain grounded in real-world experiences and are responsive to cultural contexts.

Influencing policy is central to achieving better mental health for all, but change is rarely linear and success often comes alongside setbacks, shifting priorities, and power dynamics. Drawing on real-world experience, this panel session brings together government representatives, professionals, and mental health advocates to explore what it really takes to shape policy in complex political and institutional environments.

Financing mental health can often feel complex, political, and out of reach, even for tireless advocates striving for sustainable change and inclusion. Too often, funding priorities and programme designs are shaped by donor agendas or global frameworks rather than by local needs or the lived experiences of people. This panel discussion with international donors, mental health advocates and decision-makers, will reflect on the urgent need for funding and policies that are sensitive to priorities on the ground to help mitigate the growing mental health crisis at a time of international development funding cuts. Along with the attendees, we will co-produce advocacy strategies and plans for effective system change.

Too often, young people are seen as beneficiaries of support systems designed for them, rather than partners and leaders shaping those systems. But young people are not passive recipients of care. They are active interpreters of their environments, architects of new languages of wellbeing, and key drivers of cultural and systemic change. For mental health advocacy to be effective, it must centre youth leadership as a structural commitment. Moving from dialogue to deeper reflection, we gather young advocates, researchers, and community builders in this session. Through lived experience, storytelling, and shared learning, this session aims to explore what the next chapter of youth-led mental health advocacy looks like.
