The official launch of Let's Talk Foundation — Fairway Hotel, Kampala · 29 May 2026
As part of this milestone event, we proudly launched the Mental Health Awareness and Sensitization Program for Schools and Universities — an initiative aimed at creating safer, healthier, and more supportive learning environments for students and educators.
Today, more than ever, schools and universities across Uganda are witnessing increasing cases of stress, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, peer pressure, and other mental health challenges that affect students' academic performance, relationships, and overall wellbeing. Unfortunately, many young people continue to suffer in silence due to stigma, lack of awareness, and limited access to support services.
This is why mental health workshops and sensitization programs are critical in our educational institutions.
What We Are Doing
Through this initiative, Let's Talk Foundation will:
- Conduct mental health awareness workshops for students and teachers
- Provide psychosocial support and counselling sessions
- Create Mental Health Clubs in schools and universities
- Promote peer support and emotional wellbeing
- Equip young people with life skills, resilience, and coping mechanisms
- Foster open conversations that break the stigma surrounding mental health
We believe that every student deserves a safe space to be heard, understood, and supported. By investing in mental health education today, we are building stronger schools, healthier communities, and a brighter future for the next generation.
