Assess the outcome delivered at client, service, population
and society level
•
Determine whether this model of care could be scaled up in
France, and if so, lessons could be learned.
During this reporting period, the research protocol has been
drafted. Start date of the research has been delayed due to
pandemic, it is now expected to start in the first quarter of 2022.
4) Delivering advice & support to the European Community

society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|During this reporting period, the charity sought to contribute to 5
main strategic objectives emerging from CIO’s objects, as
follows:
1) Contribute to improved access to mental health care
through system-based changes
As a new charity, INSIGHT has initiated a number of activities
which seek to contribute to this objective. In particular, the
projects in Romania and Tanzania focus on this objective.
During this reporting period this work has just started, with
concrete outcomes expected to be delivered in following period.
2) Contribute to improved staff competencies through training
& capacity building
The charity has managed to successfully deliver training to 21
Turkish train the trainers, which enabled them to both:
•
Train a large number of mental health professionals working
throughout the country and serving a population of aprox.
11.7million people.
•
Improve their own clinical work and deliver high-quality,
evidence-based and person-centred community services.
In addition, the preparations for the project in Tanzania
undertaken during this reporting period also relate to building
capacity of mental health and related professionals. Outcomes
of this work are expected in the following period.| 3) Contribute to improved governance for mental health and integrated health systems The charity has delivered support to EUCOMS which includes the drafting of the network’s strategy for the next 4 years. Implementation of this strategy is expected to have a direct positive impact on stimulating the activities of over 60 mental health service providers which are members of EUCOMS. They entail preparation of workplans for each of the 25 countries represented in EUCOMS. In addition, the preparations for the project in Tanzania undertaken during this reporting period also relate to the development and implementation of a national mental health strategy, which will have impact on almost 70% of the population who are living in remote rural areas. With 44% of the 56.3 million population under the age of 14, there is a great need to help children and adolescents build resilience for mental health. Outcomes of this work are expected in the following period. 4) Contribute to increased research-generated international base of evidence for good mental health system. The charity has started one project focused on delivering on this objective, namely the evaluation of the mental health services delivered by the WHO Collaborating Centre Lille Metropole, France. EPSM Lille-Métropole is often presented as an example of good practice in community care in France and internationally. While the Centre is conducting various research projects aimed at evaluating the impact it has in the coverage area, to date no external evaluation has been conducted. In this context, EPSM Lille-Métropole has asked INSIGHT International to design and carry out a comprehensive evaluation of its services, which would also address the process of implementation of the EPSM Lille-Métropole model of care. The research, which is expected to start in the first quarter of 2022, will seek to determine whether EPSM Lille-Métropole is a good practice in mental health service provision that delivers measurable outcomes by employing interventions which are based on evidence or documented good practices which can be used as a model at national level in France. 5) Contribute to increased prioritisation and investment in good mental health systems and integrated approaches. During this reporting period, the charity initiated engagement with potential donors for the implementation the Tanzanian National Strategy through the Tanzania Mental Health Project Reaching Those in Need. This is still work in progress, with the pandemic having delayed a number of planned fundraising activities for this purpose. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: The charity has met its set objectives on most of its projects, Achievements Para 1.41 see above details on the deliverables during this reporting against objectives period. It is worth noting the swift shift towards online working set which allowed the charity to carry out its planned work. In particular, we would like to note the successful delivery on |||online training to Turkish train-the-trainers. Considering its
efficiency and positive outcomes, it is likely that this approach
will be employed also post-pandemic in other projects the
charity will engage in.
Some of its planned activities have however been delayed due
to pandemic, namely:
a) Shaping new models of community-based mental health
care in the Swiss canton of Valais.
b) Assessment of the mental health services in Morocco,
commissioned by WHO EMRO
c) Evaluation of the national plan for mental health in Belgium,
at the invitation of the Ministry of Health.| |---|---|---| |Performance of

objectives set|Para 1.41|The charity met its fundraising objectives in relation to 2 of its
projects, namely the projects 1 and 2 in described above.
However, the emergence of the pandemic led to a delay in
securing pre-discussed funding for activities related to 3
projects (a, b and c) mentioned above. The charity will follow up
on all these fundraising activities, with the expectation that they
can be reactivated in 2022.
Preparation of fundraising activities related to the Tanzania
Mental Health Project- Reaching Those in Need has also been
delayed due to pandemic.| |Investment

charity’s financial
position at the
end of the period|Para 1.21|The charity has been affected by the emergence of the
pandemic which coincided with the start-up of its activities (the
charity has been registered on the 2ndof April 2020, just in the
beginning of the first wave). The most important difficulty was to
open a bank account, while banks refused to take on new
clients during this period. Therefore, the charity did not have
any financial operations during this reporting period.
The lack a bank account limited the ability of the charity to apply
for funding, while donors require financial validation of
applicants, including of their bank accounts. Consequently, the
charity was able to engage financially only in 2 projects:
1) Training of Workforce in the framework of 'Social Inclusion
for People with Mental Disabilities in Turkey' funded by EU
& WHO, and contracted by WHO Country Office in Turkey.
For the purposes of the project, the charity is part of a
consortium together with the Dutch-based organisation GGZ
Noord-Holland-Noord. WHO requires that funding is transferred
to only one of the consortium partners, who in turn is required to
transfer funds to the other consortium partners. This allowed
INSIGHT to be part of the consortium and have its activities
contracted with funding while not yet having a bank account.| |---|---|---|---| |||2) Driving research & dissemination of good practices in
Romania by supporting the Romanian League for Mental
Health
The charity was contracted by the Romanian League for Mental
Health in the basis of a contract which required that payments
are made only upon submission of deliverables, and bank
information was expected only at that point.
As a new organisation, the charity only has one employee, its
CEO appointed by the Board of Trustees, Dr Petrea. The Board
has secured an agreement whereby Dr Petrea has been able to
deliver its work with payment subject to fundraising, and to the
availability of financial operations (i.e. having a bank account to
process payments). Once funding is available any salary
arrears will be paid as agreed with the CEO. This allowed the
charity to be active and conduct its work as reported in this
Annual Report despite the financial challenges noted here.| |---|---|---| |Statement

charity, established on the 2ndof April 2020. That was despite
making every effort and approaching all the UK based banks.
This risk has now been eliminated while the charity has
managed to open a bank account with Lloyd Bank.
In the upcoming period, the main risk for the charity relates to
cashflow. The pandemic enabled the performance of the
charity’s work online, and reduced significantly any indirect
costs and activity costs related to travel. At the same time, it
limited the charity’s ability to fundraise. Mitigation strategies
have been put in place to ensure planned work can be funded
through alternative fundraising activities.| |---|---|---|---| ## **Structure, Governance and Management** |Description of
