Description
Over the next 20 years, the global economic impact of mental illness will exceed the impact of cancer, diabetes and respiratory disease combined.
That's the stark forecast of the World Economic Forum.
In Australia, we face both rising costs in treating mental illness, and forgone economic activity from leaving mental illness untreated.
Today, Ernest and Young and the online youth mental health service ReachOut have released a new report - 'A way forward: Equipping Australia's Mental Health System for the Next Generation'.
