Why It Matters
Mental health research is critically underfunded, yet the need has never been greater. Your support can change lives.
🌏 Over 1 Billion People Globally
More than 1 billion people worldwide are living with a mental health condition in 2025 — and mental disorders are a leading cause of disability.
🇦🇺 1 in 5 Australians Experience Mental Ill‑health Annually
About 1 in 5 Australians report a diagnosable mental health condition each year, and *over half* will experience mental ill‑health at some point in their lives.
🧠 77.9% of Australians With a Mental Condition Say They Need Help
In 2024‑25, nearly 78% of people with a mental health condition reported they needed to see a health professional — but many delay or don’t get care when needed.
Mental Health Funding Reality
Despite mental illness being the second highest burden of disease, mental health receives disproportionately low research funding.
