Together4MH advances mental health promotion in education and work by integrating a curated evidence-based toolbox with stateof-the-art co-creation process. We support mental health promotion and prevention communities where people learn and work. Empowered schools, universities, and workplaces do not only implement tailored interventions, but actively train and equip the next generation in an embedded and committed cascade model. This integrated approach delivers person-centred support across all ages, and includes a particular focus on young people in critical life transitions. We document the effect and the cascade scaling model
through secondary schools, universities, public and private workplaces across seven European countries.Together4MH mobilizes the consortium’s interdisciplinary expertise through four pillars: Pillar 1: A curated, evidence-based toolbox for integrated individual, group and organizational interventions in education, training, and work. The toolbox supports mental health promotion and prevention, while also identifying particularly vulnerable groups with tailored interventions. The resulting standardized toolbox of interdisciplinary and evidence-based interventions ensures quality, comparability, and transferability across EU contexts. Pillar 2: A state-of-the-art participatory co-creation framework ensures that the toolbox is contextually adapted and owned in each case, and that the case communities are empowered agents in both its local application and later scaling. Pillar 3: A case-embedded and committed cascade scaling framework ensures built-in expansion to new cases while previous ones are still ongoing. Pillar 4: A system for monitoring and evaluating the implementations’ effects across cases includes health economic
