There is no health, and there is no wellbeing, without #mentalhealth. And in this regard, we are, far too often, failing our young people. 10% of children and adolescents around the 🌍 experience a mental disorder. And for young people, #suicide is a leading cause of death.

I congratulate @naomiosaka for having the courage to speak out about her #mentalhealth – and at a time when the world was watching. Mental health is essential to our overall well-being and we all have a responsibility to protect that in whatever way works for us.

In October we will host an international conference in Amsterdam. To ensure that access to mental health and psychosocial support is considered as important as food, water and shelter. It is essential! With our partners I am calling for urgent action. #mindthemind #MHPSS
