SMRITI is a solution that will create a safe space for children in the Dharavi informal settlements in Mumbai, India, who have no real outlet for their mental health issues within the community. It will become a safe space for them to develop and showcase their creative talents by becoming actors, directors and editors in the creation of a series of audiovisual materials. By developing the performances, they will learn about how to navigate their emotions, and influence their community by rising awareness around mental health in children.
The Team behind SMRITI emerged as the top Team from the Mental Health thematic track.
