Global Mental Health Fellowship Program 2026 (Cohort 5)

Deadline: September 26, 2026

Applications are open for the Global Mental Health Fellowship Program 2026 (Cohort 5). Every experience shapes us. The people we meet, the communities we grow up in, the challenges we face, the things we observe and the lessons we learn all influence how we understand the world—including mental health.

For Cohort 5, Global MHF is creating space for young people to bring those perspectives into meaningful conversations, develop practical skills, connect across communities and cultures and turn learning into action.
