Abstract
This introductory article reviews the development, vision, principles and aims of the International Alliance for Child and Adolescent Mental Health and Schools (Intercamhs), a network of more than 250 people from 26 countries involved in whole-school mental health promotion. Global issues related to child and adolescent mental health promotion and schools are discussed, including those related to language, collaborative practice and partnerships, involvement of young people and families, and research. An overview of the inaugural meeting of Intercamhs held in Portland, Oregon in October, 2003 is presented, along with reviews of seven additional papers and commentary included in this special issue.
