3rd Nordic MHPSS Conference Oslo 2026

In June 2026, the Norwegian Network for Global Mental Health (NNGMH), Norad, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, OsloMet and the Kavli Trust co-hosts the third Nordic Conference on MHPSS: From response to resilience: Strengthening mental health and psychosocial wellbeing before, during and after emergencies

NNGMH consists of NGOs, governmental institutions, professionals, and individuals. The network works to increase knowledge and practice in the field of global mental health through conferences and seminars in Norway. The Norwegian network is part of the wider Nordic MHPSS Network.

The main conference is on 3 to 4 June at OsloMet and will be preceded by a youth conference, organised by the Mental Health Youth Alliance on 2 June 2026.

The conference comes at a time when the world is at a very critical point. Crisis and wars are escalating, climate change and nature loss are leading to increases of natural disasters affecting people and affecting the globe's future sustainability, and the stress of the world is having a destabilising effect on people, relations, and the economy.

The theme of the conference “From Response to Resilience - Strengthening Mental Health and Psychosocial Wellbeing Before, During, and After Emergencies”, indicates a need for change from just responding to challenges to seeking the roots and building resilience in people, planet and systems. We want to explore how the global community can innovatively increase the well-being of people and communities despite the instability we are experiencing.

The 2026 conference will focus on integrating MHPSS across preparedness, response, recovery, development, and sustaining peace; encouraging continued prioritisation and investment by government and private sector to strengthen systems; and promoting a holistic and rights-based approach that elevates youth and lived experience.

The conference is made possible through generous funding from Caritas Sweden, Norwegian Institute of Public Health and the University of Bergen.
