Empowering Youth Through Mental Health Literacy

About us

Welcome to the Mental Health Literacy (MHL) Project, an innovative initiative spanning Bulgaria, Serbia, Germany, and Turkey. We're on a mission to enhance mental health awareness and support among young adults and youth workers.

To create a world where every young person is equipped with the knowledge and skills to understand, manage, and support mental health - both their own and others'.

Our Vision

What We Do

Our project takes a holistic approach to improving mental health literacy among youth and youth workers. We believe that by combining education, training, research, and community building, we can create lasting change in how mental health is understood and addressed. Here's how we're making a difference:

Develop comprehensive MHL Educational Programs

Programs Our tailored programs bridge the gap in mental health education for young adults. We combine evidence-based practices with engaging, youth-friendly content to ensure maximum impact and retention.

We empower youth workers with the knowledge and skills to address mental health issues effectively. Our training programs equip them to recognize early signs of mental health challenges and provide appropriate support and resources.

Train youth workers to become mental health advocates

Create accessible online resources for ongoing learning

Our interactive online website offers a wealth of resources, from informative articles to practical tools and exercises. This ensures that mental health literacy education is available anytime, anywhere, to those who need it most.

Conduct transnational research to inform best practices

We collaborate across borders to study MHL levels and identify opportunities for improvement. Our research informs the development of culturally sensitive and effective mental health literacy strategies.

We're building a community of like-minded organizations and individuals dedicated to improving youth mental health. This network facilitates the exchange of ideas, resources, and best practices across countries and cultures.

Foster a supportive network of organizations committed to youth mental health

Why It Matters ?

In today's fast-paced world, mental health literacy is more crucial than ever. By improving understanding, reducing stigma, and providing practical tools, we aim to empower the next generation to lead healthier, more resilient lives.
