Mental health is seen as a resource that can be supported. It is possible to effectively prevent and manage mental disorders and reduce discrimination and stigmatisation associated with mental disorders. 

The strategy has five priority areas:

1. Mental health as human capital
2. Developing positive mental health in the daily lives of children and young people
3. Mental health rights
4. Broad-based services that meet people’s needs
5. Good mental health management
