WE THE FUTURE: Reimagining The Future of Mental…

Kunal Sood will provide a brief introduction as to what co-creating a world where mental health, transformational leadership, and global wellbeing are our highest priority consists of, why it can contribute to sustaining peace, and what is being done to facilitate inclusion of mental health in sustaining peace efforts. Following the introduction and overview, Mrs. Sophie Grégoire Trudeau will describe key challenges in mental health and best practices for growth and positive change, delving into the science behind brain health and our unique human emotional signatures. Four practitioners will then provide concrete examples as to how mental health is implemented on the ground, interspersed with experts and pioneers sharing their lived experiences — recognizing the relevance of global mental health as a universal need, and the importance of this recognition in public policy objectives and related outcomes globally.

Following the presentations, the floor will be open to Statements from the Floor and discussion.
