The Commission sets itself apart through the inclusion of people with lived experience (PWLE) of mental health conditions, whose poems, testimonies, and quotations punctuate the report. The Commission articulates the scope of the problem and reviews evidence and direct experiences on what works to reduce stigma and discrimination in mental health. In collaboration with more than 50 people globally, the Commission is led by Professor Graham Thornicroft (Kings College, London, UK) and Charlene Sunkel, CEO and Founder of the Global Mental Health Peer Network and a PWLE of schizophrenia.

The Commission is different in that it makes a deliberate effort to include people with histories of mental health conditions.

You can say that it means "The Commission makes itself stand out ...". That has a very different meaning from "outstanding".
