About the initiative

Vertentes is an intersectoral movement that articulates nationally and internationally key actors for systemic transformations in Mental Health, acting on 3 fronts of action: Production and Dissemination of Knowledge, Advocacy and Mobilization of sustainable financing.

The Vertentes Fund will act as a catalyst for systemic transformations in the area, ensuring the necessary support for initiatives with a positive impact on mental health.  

Why a Philanthropic Fund?

The organization sought a Philanthropic Fund to expand its operations and multiply its capacity to promote positive impacts on mental health. The purpose is to nurture a culture of mental health care and, thus, bring about empowerment, collaboration of people and knowledge, literacy and dissemination of knowledge and increase investment in mental health.
