The initiative offers a new approach to mental health care that is
rights based and recovery oriented. Freedom from coercive
interventions, respect for the right to legal capacity, and promotion
of autonomy, choice, community inclusion and recovery are at the core
of the initiative. The five main objectives of the initiative are to
increase capacity to understand and promote human rights, recovery,
and independent living in the community; create community-based and
recovery-oriented services that respect and promote human rights;
improve the quality of care and human rights conditions in mental
health and related services; develop a civil society movement to
influence policy making and advocate for the integration of a human
rights approach in mental health; and reform national policies and
legislations in line with the CRPD and other international human
rights standards.
