Mandate

From principles to professional practice.

DigitalMentalHealth.eu brings together work on the conditions required for responsible AI adoption in mental health systems.

01

Governance

Clarifying responsibility, escalation and decision authority when care becomes AI-mediated.

02

Professional competence

Defining the knowledge and applied capabilities professionals need to evaluate and oversee digital systems.

03

Implementation

Translating ethical and regulatory expectations into training, organisational practice and accountable use.

Applied services

Move from AI uncertainty to an operating decision.

Focused engagements for mental health organisations that already use AI, are evaluating deployment, or need clear accountability before scaling.

Erasmus+ NAVIGATOR — Digital Navigator Specialist Course

A nine-partner European education initiative for psychologists.

2026—2028

NAVIGATOR is developing and piloting a competence-based specialist training pathway for psychologists working with digital tools and AI-mediated contexts. The work connects competency definition, course design, piloting and European dissemination.

The project contributes to European models for recognising specialist competence. It does not, by itself, constitute a professional licence or independent accreditation authority.
