Project Details
Description
Public Engagement Project funded by the Wellcome Trust via Scotpen SWEA.
During this project, in order to explore depression & mental illness from a variety of angles, 4 groups of people took part in a facilitated process with our partner Patient Voices, to create their own digital stories: - Researchers who study depression; - Adults with lived experience of depression; - Mothers of young people with mental illness;(in collaboration with Parenting Mental Health charity) - Young people (16-25) who explored the topic of mental health and wellbeing. (In collaboration with Glasgow Clyde College and Princes Trust)
These stories (videos) can be viewed on the Patient Voices website: https://www.patientvoices.org.uk/mydepyourdep.htm Trigger warning: These stories talk about mental health and contain themes such as suicide.
[Digital stories are short videos (2-6 minutes) created by bringing together a series of pictures or photos with a voiceover. All of the digital stories created for this project were made entirely by the individual, during a facilitated process with Patient Voices]
These stories have been shown at scientific conferences and events as well as online public events. They have also been flagged to policymakers. (See individual event listings).
Anders Jespersen worked a PhD Intern, assisting with the organisation and management of this project.
