Mindset Revolution: Strengthening youth voice on mental health policy

Collage of six colour photos

Lifelong wellbeing theme

What’s on offer?

The Mindset Revolution project in Greater Manchester enabled young people to co-design their spaces of participation to influence mental health policies. We want to reach out to young people and policymakers in WMCA to share our approach and strengthen youth-led networks to change the way youth mental health is understood and supported

What’s it about?

This event is an opportunity to share with young people and policymakers from WMCA our approach, with the young people from Manchester leading on a 3-hour interactive workshop to share more about:

  • legislative theatre and how we can use it for more inclusive citizen engagement;
  • how our participatory platform works and how other young people can use it to influence mental health policies and monitor change;
  • what we have learnt from a youth-led approach to public participation and how we can do more of it and better

Who’s leading the event?

Dr Sonia Bussu
