Gill Tiney joins WMHF advisory board

Every 40 seconds, someone dies by suicide, resulting in more than 700,000 deaths around the world each year. —World Health Organization (WHO). And those who try but don't succeed are estimated to be 20 times as many. This stunning reality underscores the urgent need for more open conversations, education, and support surrounding public mental health and wellbeing.

At World Mental Health Forum , we delight in honoring those who honor us – and not with words alone, but with substantial action. Thus, we are pleased to announce that Gill Tiney , CEO of Collaboration Global and brilliant co-organizer of WMHF 2024, has been appointed to WMHF's twelve-member international advisory board in recognition of her spirited contributions to Public Mental Health and Wellbeing around the world.

Don't put your head in the sand and leave it to 'others'. Don't just blame politicians and point a finger to strangers who we supposedly trust to make things better. Now is the time to for us all to take responsibility for what we CAN do. —Gill Tiney, How True Collaboration Overcomes All Adversity | TEDx youtu.be/87REHnkNUMs
