According to the World Health Organization mental health and substance use disorder affects 13% of the world’s population and anxiety and depression are the most common mental illnesses. This imposes a tremendous burden on the social and economic wellbeing of individuals, families and societies at large.

Help us talk more about mental health and join the conversation “Getting personal: Wellbeing for Changemakers” on the 25th of May between 5:00 – 6:30 PM (CET). It will be a conversation about ´the personal dimension of the changemaker journey. We have invited our guest participant Oren Ipp, who is the founder of The Changing Room and he will be introducing this topic.
