About
the project
The project focuses on the prevention and destigmatization of mental health issues among the youth. It is built on the approach of personal confessions of mental health ambassadors (disabled, young people with less opportunities) in connection with gamified tools. It also strengthens the capacities of youth workers and youth organizations for reaching and involving mental health ambassadors in youth work.
