Youth mental health lacks comprehensive measurement standards
The field of child and adolescent mental health currently operates without the measurement standards that exist in many other health domains.
Existing measurement systems lack a shared common language, are not open access, and are not designed to work across diverse populations and cultures.
LUMI provides a solution to
measurement fragmentation
Rather than relying on fragmented or culturally misaligned tools, LUMI is designed to provide assessment through instruments that have been tested through diverse cultural contexts, ensuring questions are more relevant, inclusive, and reflective of young people's lived experiences.
Made for global use.
Designed for real
world impact.
LUMI is designed as a global, unified measurement system that more accurately responds to the need for more standardized, inclusive, and comprehensive approaches to understanding youth mental health.
Built through international collaboration, LUMI combines scientific rigor, cultural adaptability, and practical application to support researchers, practitioners and policymakers working to strengthen mental health systems worldwide so that young people and caregivers receive the support they need across diverse settings.
