Challenge Lab Report
This report provides a comprehensive summary of a full day challenge lab event organised by the INNOVATE team at the University of Essex. Twenty three participants attended the event, bringing together a diverse group of stakeholders (researchers, service providers, charities, local authority representatives, community groups and community representatives) to collaboratively identify data gaps of service use and/or burden of mental health, map existing assets, reflect on challenges and barriers to mental health services and explore ways to create meaningful collaborations and a supportive ecosystem to tackle mental health inequities.
