Breaking the Stigma: Honduran Youth Speak Up for Mental Health
“This is a problem that too many young people are going through right now. The message we can leave them is to never give up, never give in.” Dayana Aguirre, Youth Participant
Mental health is a vital issue, especially for young people in Honduras, where stigma and limited resources make it challenging to seek help. This video features inspiring messages from youth participants in Corus organization Lutheran World Relief’s Creating Spaces for Youth Employability (CREE) project. These young Hondurans are breaking barriers, promoting awareness, and encouraging self-care and support in their communities.
The Video Contest
As part of the CREE Project, Lutheran World Relief launched a video contest on the Empleando Mentes platform to spark discussions about mental health among Honduran youth. In this video, young participants become champions of mental health, courageously sharing their experiences, perspectives, and hopes for a community that supports well-being for all.
About the CREE Project
Led by Lutheran World Relief in partnership with Red Institutos Comunitarios (Red-ITC), the Creating Spaces for Youth Employability (CREE) project empowers young people across Honduras with skills and opportunities for a brighter future. Through the innovative EmpleandoMentes ("Employing Minds") digital platform, the project connects youth with livelihoods assistance, psychosocial support, and engaging resources on resilience, leadership, self-care, and more.

    'Dr. Olive Musa, the Director of Non-formal Education at the Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education in Sierra Leone, believes that education can transform lives and communities.' Indeed! 'Education can transform lives and communities' Communities appear and evolve in an environment. The environment is then co-factor of transformation of lives made possible by and through education. That environment must also be shaped, maintained and transmitted via education, freedom, democracy, justice, mutual respect and benevolence, hope, etc.
