Mental Health Innovation Challenge
The Mental Health Innovation Challenge will bring together multidisciplinary minds to explore equitable and accessible solutions to improve the mental fitness of our communities.
Mental health is a key component of overall health and wellbeing. However, health data from our Primary Health Network Local Government Areas indicate a significant need for intervention and an uplift in targeted services to address the psychological distress embedded within the community.
The Mental Health Innovation Challenge will bring together mentors and experts to help you rapidly ideate and build meaningful solutions in the mental health space. Meet new people, be exposed to fresh ideas, learn new skills, and build creative, original work.
