The By the Global Youth, For the Global Youth: Navigating Mental Health Advocacy in an Ever-Changing World conference focuses on what young people can do to empower themselves and others for the future of mental health. No matter your profession, age, or experience, you too can make a difference in your community and advocate for mental health awareness and change. With the inclusive format of a virtual conference, we provide educational and collaborative opportunities – through keynotes, panels, workshops, and networking – offering opportunities to gain knowledge and skills while hearing from other young people who are at the forefront of mental health advocacy. Our goal is to provide the tools and inspiration to empower young people to advocate for a better future for those living with mental ill-health.
