Made in Singapore: Courageous Conversations on Gen Z's Mental Health | Online
About this event
It’s no easy feat having to deal with a global crisis and work to spur systemic changes - all while the future is put on hold and nothing but uncertainties seem to loom ahead. There is some heavy stuff happening in the world, and this is taking a toll on everyone’s mental health. One generation might arguably be taking this hit the hardest : our Gen Z.
As the most social-driven generation, Gen Zers were already acutely aware of crises in the world around them yet most are at a loss of the best way forward. This generation has experienced a historic pandemic that yanked them from their education and deprived them of almost everything that remotely resembles a sense of normalcy. They have, and are still witnessing, an unprecedented economic crisis just as they prepare to enter the workforce. So it’s no surprise that these stressors have had a tremendous negative impact on the mental health of Gen Z.
Mental Health is slowly becoming more mainstream, but there is a long way to go before we can lose the stigma surrounding the topic. These Singaporean organizations are tackling the difficult issues for their peers. Come join our thought-provoking panel led by Singaporean youths themselves as we have a no-filtered conversation and take a deep dive into the emotional state of Gen Z in the middle of one of the most pivotal years of their life so far.
