Introduction
In Hong Kong SAR, one in every six young people is afflicted by the torment of mental illness. He or she may be just around you and me.
In line with World Mental Health Day, the “Hong Kong Dialogue” series continues to focus on the mental well-being of young people. Through two conferences and two workshops, we bring together youth and stakeholders from multiple sectors to explore different possibilities in support of youth mental health.
In Autumn 2023, let’s open up and collaborate in finding the way out amidst all the adversity.
Objectives:
- To foster dialogue and collaboration between youths and stakeholders towards enhancing youth mental health
- To elevate youth voice by engaging young people to share their experience and views
- To explore community-based, youth-friendly mental health support options
