Our focus
The Framework is structured around seven principles that support mental health and wellbeing. These principles are used to organise the key deliverables and their corresponding outcome measures.
Additionally, the Framework centres around strategies to promote wellbeing, early intervention, as well as support and recovery. This will ensure students and staff are provided with population-based strategies to help our community to stay well and thrive, while also reaching those at-risk or requiring support.
The Framework's principles and deliverables were informed by extensive student and staff engagement, as well as Orygen's Australian University Mental Health Framework.
