Global Mental Health Summit 2026 

Join us in Perth, Western Australia at Optus Stadium from 14 - 16 October 2026, for a powerful global gathering dedicated to advancing mental health for our communities and generations to come. Hosted by the Multicultural Services Centre WA, in partnership with the World Federation for Mental Health, and the WA Mental Health Commission the Summit will bring together leaders, innovators, and advocates from around the world.

Centered on the theme “Building Resilience, Equity, and Culturally Responsive Integrated Support Systems,” the Summit will explore the profound mental health challenges emerging from global pressures such as climate change, conflict and displacement, rapid technological change, and the evolving media landscape. Together, we will shine a light on systemic inequities and champion the development of resilient, integrated, and culturally sensitive mental health care — particularly for vulnerable populations disproportionately affected.
