New report from us at @climatecares.bsky.social and United for Global Mental Health on the integration of #MentalHealth into national adaptation policies.
Most national adaptation plans (58%) make no mention of mental health. When they do, this is mostly in relation to impacts, rather than actions.
The survey takes about 15 minutes, and you'll be entered into a draw to win a voucher (up to Β£50).
This is part of the Compass Project: Guiding minds and inspiring action in climate education - a project from the Climate Cares Centre at Imperial College London.
Calling students and educators in England!
Have your say about how #education can support young people to build good #mentalhealth and to take action in a changing world π

Authors highlight the opportunity to address the current mental health gap in national climate mitigation plans, as countries prepare new plans ahead of #COP30
