This multimedia platform in French and Wolof aims to improve mental health literacy and reduce stigma among young people in Senegal. The platform will adapt its content according to age (10-15 / 16-24) to respect young people’s development and expectations. For ages 10-15, the platform uses a board game format to help children explore emotions, express themselves, and learn how to react to everyday situations. For ages 16-24, videos and podcasts illustrate real-life scenarios relevant to this age group, offering practical solutions and encouraging help-seeking behaviours. The platform will be co-developed with young people and validated by mental health experts to ensure its messages are appropriate for the target audience.
