Thanks for this. Founders Pledge has recently completed a report on mental health and we found that Strong Minds’ cost-effectiveness has increased significantly due to significant declines in cost. We have it at around the $220/DALY mark. Depending on how much you think DALYs underweight mental health, this makes Strong Minds look highly cost-effective. There is, I should note, large uncertainty, and their intervention is less well-tested than other global health interventions.
The report will be on our website in the next few months, but I’m happy to share it with anyone interested.
As we’re recommending Strong Minds, this will probably mean that significant funds will be directed to them in the next year or so.
