Join us for a live conversation titled “Cultural Inclusion & Dialogue as Tools for Reducing Mental Health Stigma” today, May 21, 2025, at 8:00 PM EAT, on X-Space. This discussion is part of the observance of World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development.
The event will focus on how elements like music, art, storytelling, and traditions can promote mental health and foster community inclusiveness. Experts in the field, including Phillip Balimunsi, Curator at the UNCC and Nommo Gallery, and Manana Birabi F., Founder of the Milégé Heritage Foundation, will lead the conversation.
Participants will learn how cultural practices can aid in mental health recovery and shift societal perceptions around mental health issues. By sharing experiences and discussing cultural narratives, the conversation aims to build understanding and acceptance.
This virtual exchange invites everyone to participate in the dialogue. Share your thoughts on culture, healing, and mental health. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage in an important discussion that could influence community attitudes towards mental health.
