WINTERCEARIG PROJECT AND ITS IMPACT IN VIETNAM

Raising Mental Health Awareness in Vietnam through the Arts

The Facts

Mental Health in Vietnam

Amidst very limited mental health professionals, these issues are being mishandled or ignored. With collaboration between science, the arts and technology, we can connect and guide the community here in Vietnam about mental health, to provide important support, information and guidance about this topic.

The Project 

This is the 4th year that the Wintercearig project is running (as of 2021). 

Bringing the community together, collectively as a group, to help create a safe space for sharing, showing progress via artistic creations and long term support for the public here in Vietnam. Thus, support groups were created (Movement, visual art, theater and music) to run art-based workshops, as a way for attendees to work out their emotional issues.

Through them, Wintercearig team is raising awareness for students and young adults and bringing them closer to understanding the ever growing problem. The final result is to give them balance in life, school and work and to overcome their fears and give them the mental stability that they need with the support groups offered.
