Our approach
The Coalition for Mental Health Investment has been established to ensure that within a generation, investment for mental health matches the scale of global need. We are contributing through four areas of work: Connect, Inspire, De-risk and Integrate.
CONNECT
We believe that collaboration among funders is critical to scaling our collective reach and impact. To make it easier to know where funders are already working together, check out our searchable funder collaboration database. We are also creating opportunities for leaders across sectors to connect on mental health. See our Media Center for highlights from our previous events and sign up to hear about future, relevant events.
INSPIRE
We want to make it easier for funders to explore the financial and social returns of investing in global mental health. To do so, we’re capturing conversations with funders around the world about how they’re investing different types of capital in mental health. Search our ‘Funding Mental health: the Inside Scoop’ interview series for the topics that interest you most.
DE-RISK
The Coalition for Mental Health Investment’s mental health financing resources aim to highlight how a full range of financial mechanisms can be used in mental health to make it easier for funders to collaborate, unlock scale and de-risk each other’s investments. Click here to learn more.
INTEGRATE
We are passionate about the win-win outcomes that can come from integrating mental health programming into other areas of work - from physical health to gender, climate and education. Stay tuned for our 2026 report and convenings, in partnership with Prospira Global, that will highlight best practice and the opportunities for scale.
