In December 2010, the Executive Agency for Health and Consumers (EAHC) of the European Commission's Directorate General for Health and Consumers commissioned this project to provide an up-to-date profile of mental health systems across European Members States and other countries, with a focus on mental illness prevention and mental health promotion activities. This was to inform the European Union's work within and between Member States and other countries and provide a further platform for future EU work in the field. The report comprises: a review of the relevant European literature;
- a review of the relevant European literature;
- a series of 29 country profiles (EU Member States and Norway), and analyses of these;
- suggestions for strengthening systems to support prevention and promotion;
- economic and social benefits of investments in prevention and promotion;
- existing monitoring indicators to assess the quality of mental healthcare;
- future plans for prevention and promotion in Member States and other countries;
- discussion and policy recommendations for Member States and the European Commission.
