REPORT MINISTERS GATHER TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH AT THE GLOBAL MINISTERIAL MENTAL HEALTH SUMMIT IN LONDON Chantelle Booysen In the wake of being woke to the wellness ‘trend’, there has been much needed focus on mental wellness and mental health, specifically, and its impact in relation to physical health. A focus that is long overdue, and certainly welcomed, as age old efforts of the medical fraternities, academics, nonprofit organisations and civil society seems to be gathering traction on this issue, on a global scale. AS MENTAL HEALTH BECOMES THE FASTEST GROWING GLOBAL HEALTH CHALLENGE OF OUR TIME, IT FORMED THE BASIS OF THE FIRST GLOBAL MINISTERIAL MENTAL HEALTH SUMMIT HELD IN LONDON ON THE 9 TH AND 10 TH OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong>. The theme of this summit focused on the Equality for Mental Health in the 21st Century, endorsed and promoted by the UK Government in partnership with the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) and the World Health Organisation (WHO). The summit organisers reported the attendance of 586 delegates from 61 countries with 47 countries sending 106 official delegates. 15 of these national delegations were led by respective country Ministers, engaging in the discussions and declarations for achieving equality for mental health. The summit highlighted the inclusion of the Lived Experience voice in addressing legislation, services and approaches to mental health care. There is also a big drive to involve young people in these global discussions and implementations as a key element to address adolescent mental health issues. As part of Youth Leaders for The Lancet Commission for Global Mental Health, this summit was particularly important as it created Chantelle Booysen a platform for the launch of this fresh approach to the prioritisation of mental health care. The Commission creates a guideline to a global approach in addressing mental health approaches and assesses the global mental health agenda in the context of the Sustainable Development Guidelines as set out by the United Nations General Assembly. THE YOUTH CAMPAIGN FOR THE LANCET COMMISSION FOR GLOBAL MENTAL HEALTH WAS SPECIFICALLY CREATED TO DISSEMINATE AND TRANSLATE THE KEY MESSAGES OF THE COMMISSION IN ORDER TO CREATE EFFECTIVE PLATFORMS FOR COMMUNICATING THESE MESSAGES IN A WAY THAT YOUNG PEOPLE CAN GRASP AND ASSOCIATE WITH. A BIG PART OF THIS YOUTH CAMPAIGN IS FOCUSED ON CREATING CONVERSATION THROUGH ADVOCACY EFFORTS ON A MULTI-TIERED APPROACH. SOUTH AFRICAN PSYCHIATRY ISSUE 17 <strong>2018</strong> * 35
