About the Project
The Resilient and Mentally Healthy Societies (REMESOS) project (2025-2028), funded under the EU4Health programme, will find expert agreement on the most appropriate way to measure population mental health across Europe, while also implementing a community mental health intervention to promote mental health on local level. The project is delivered by a diverse consortium of 12 partners from 9 countries, including public health institutes, universities, civil society organisations, and a network bringing together people with lived experience in poor mental health and mental disorders.
Measuring mental health at population level:
- Review existing methods for assessing population mental health and identify the most suitable approach
- Allow policymakers to monitor trends, evaluate interventions, and compare outcomes across regions
- Build on existing EU surveys and research, ensuring it is reliable, transferable, and relevant to European contexts.
Community support through Guided Functional Peer Support (GFP):
- GFP is a community-based intervention from Finland, featured in the best practice portal of DG SANTE which brings people with lived experience of poor mental health together in peer-led groups.
- Adapt and implement GFP in Greece, Slovakia, Portugal, and Bosnia & Herzegovina, targeting vulnerable groups such as young people, the elderly, migrants and refugees, and socio-economically disadvantaged communities, to improve mental health and reduce stigma.
