Digital Navigator (2026-2028)
NAVIGATOR aims to develop, pilot, and establish a Digital Navigator Specialist Course that equips psychologists with key digital competencies needed to support the safe and effective use of digital mental health tools in routine care. The international consortium aims to define and validate core Digital Navigator competencies, to create a scalable, low-cost continuing vocational education and training (VET) programme, and to support recognition and accreditation pathways through professional bodies.
NAVIGATOR brings together partners from seven European countries to develop and pilot a specialised training course for Digital Navigators. The project will train at least 175 psychologists, deliver a validated competency framework, and develop a scalable training programme that can be widely adopted across mental health care.
NAVIGATOR will also collaborate with professional associations to establish accreditation pathways, ensuring these new competencies are recognised in the long term. Through stakeholder workshops, policy recommendations, and European-wide dissemination, the project aims to accelerate the digital transformation of mental health care and contribute to better access to high-quality care for patients across Europe.
REMESOS – Resilient and Mentally Healthy Societies (2025-2028)
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the already increasing number of mental disorders and levels of poor mental health and wellbeing across the European Union. Governments have increasingly acknowledged that mental disorders and poor mental health are not individual problems and have rolled out large-scale interventions for mental health promotion and the prevention of mental disorders. To assess their effectiveness, it is necessary to not only monitor how many people are diagnosed with a mental disorder, but also entire populations. The Resilient and Mentally Healthy Societies (REMESOS) project (2025-2028), funded under the EU4Health programme, will find expert agreement on the most appropriate way to measure population mental health across Europe, while also implementing a community mental health intervention to promote mental health on local level.
REMESOS aims to find expert agreement on the most appropriate way to measure population mental health across Europe, while also implementing a community mental health intervention to promote mental health on the local level.
The project is delivered by a diverse consortium of 12 partners from 9 countries, including public health institutes, universities, civil society organisations, and a network bringing together people with lived experience in poor mental health and mental disorders.
