The European Commission organised an online marketplace to present the results of the call for best and promising practices on mental health from 11 to 13 March 2024. During this virtual event, representatives from best and promising practices presented their initiatives and shared local, regional or national experience.

Over the three days, representatives from the Expert Group on Public Health heard about  initiatives from across the EU, covering a wide range of topics linked to the Commission Communication on a comprehensive approach to mental health including:

• Good mental health in schools and the workplace
• Suicide prevention
• Better access to mental health services

Selected practices were selected on account of their effectiveness and efficiency, the potential for implementation and transferability, as well as sustainability and intersectoral collaboration.

An overview of these 29 best and promising practices is available here: Best and promising practices on mental health - European Commission
