Description
This tool contains a select curation of frameworks for promoting (mental) health and health equity, especially for populations of interest within the Mental Health Promotion Innovation Fund. Links for each framework are provided, along with a description, and suggestions for potential use.
Potential use
For project teams with a focus on mental health promotion who are initiating or reviewing their intervention approaches and research and evaluation plans.
