Conclusions

• The child and adolescent psychiatry services now

available in remote, sparsely populated rural areas are

insufficient to meet growing demand

• We need to find new ways to utilize scarce financial and

expert resources more efficiently

• Suggested eHealth solutions developed in transnational collaboration are likely to provide for capacity and

system development in child and adolescent psychiatry
