In India, mental health disorders are the second leading cause of disease burden in terms of years lived with disability. Mental health is being recognised as one of the priority areas in health policies around the world and has also been included in the Sustainable Development Goals. In spite of an ever-increasing number of people affected, a lot of stigma still surrounds the topic of mental health. 

This project is designed as a presentation which aims to first understand participants' level of understanding followed by sensitization toward prevalent mental health issues among school students, including exam anxiety, peer pressure, etc. This project helps in rightly educating and providing basic guidance to students so they can not only help themselves but also help people around them.

In a collaboration with the Global Shapers Surat Hub, we virtually conduct the Pop Up festival for emotional well-being for school students and corporates.
