Accessible bathroom, All gender bathroom, Seating available, Wheelchair accessibleA screening, a short presentation and a youth-led panel discussion to talk openly about how we might create positive social change to end stigma surrounding mental health. StigmaBeat is a dynamic, youth-led, storytelling project that was co-designed and co-produced with young people in Gippsland in 2022.
Three short films will be screen – co-created by young people and focused on reducing mental health stigma. These will be followed by a short presentation on the process of using creativity and co-design to create the films.
Afterwards, a panel discussion will ensue with one of the co-designers from the Gippsland project, alongside representative from YLab (a co-design and consulting social enterprise) and batyr (a preventative mental health organisation). The panel is moderated by Elfy Scott, an award-winning freelance journalist, presenter and producer, and current Satellite ambassador who has published her debut book focusing on the silence and stigma that surrounds complex mental health conditions in Australia.
Join the Satellite Foundation for an evening of discussion, ideas and creative explorations on the topic of reducing stigma and mental health. There will be participatory elements inviting attendees to reflect on what makes a safe and inclusive space – linked to the iteration of this project around creating safe and inclusive spaces that enable brave conversations about stigma.
