Prevention and Engagement
Prevention and engagement focuses on strengthening mental health literacy and resilience before problems become crises. The work includes universal,
selective, and targeted interventions delivered with partners across education, monastic institutions, health, justice, local government, and civil society. It also
generates evidence and recommendations to inform national policy and legislation.
