This year’s World Mental Health Day theme, “Mental Health in Humanitarian Emergencies”, is a timely reminder of the urgency to prioritise mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) for millions of individuals affected by crises, catastrophes and emergencies.

As key populations, communities, and civil societies from the Asia-Pacific region, we reiterate the severe impact that conflict and disaster, including wars, displacement, insecurity, human rights atrocities, and climate-related catastrophes have on the mental and physical wellbeing of communities living with and/or affected by HIV, TB and malaria. Furthermore, we emphasise that key and vulnerable populations face significantly higher risks of developing mental health conditions, which is linked to lower treatment adherence and results in greater mortality.

We call on country leaders, duty-bearers, and all stakeholders with the support of technical partners to:
1️⃣ Strengthen human resources for health by closing the domestic resourcing gap in MHPSS services – a crucial step towards resilient and sustainable systems for health capable of addressing HIV, TB and malaria within primary care and community settings;
2️⃣Increase awareness and training among community health workers and other primary health care (PHC) providers to deliver integrated mental and physical health services to key and vulnerable populations.
3️⃣Support a successful of The Global Fund by raising at least US$18 billion, ensuring mental health is included in programmatic investments and that sufficient resources are allocated to countries to finally end , and – advancing the Sustainable Development Goals and Universal Health Coverage.

, we must ensure mental health is fully funded and integrated in HIV, TB and malaria responses! 🎗️💚
