[Film#1] Mental Health in Education: ‘The Poem, Umuvugo’ , 2024
90 x 160 cm (h x w)

This is a film made by the young people in the ‘Mental Health in education’ group. The filmmakers want to show how teachers can judge young people as being disobedient or disengaged when in fact they have mental health challenges. They ask that teachers try to understand they might have difficult lives, and that their behaviour is a consequence of this. They ask that teachers try to understand this, and be supportive.
