Resources and Materials section
Welcome to the part of the platform dedicated to young people, youth workers, educators, and generally anyone interested to learn more about mental health, gender and young people.
Besides educational and supportive materials developed in this project, if you’re a young person, you will also be able to find here other useful websites, blogs and tools that can help you navigate your mental health issues and support your wellbeing.
Hello! For you, we have the Let’s Talk Handbook – a useful tool we’ve developed for youth workers in a general meaning – teachers, educators, trainers, etc. The Handbook includes both theoretical content, but also some practical tools and tips on how to conduct gender-sensitive mental health programmes for young people.
