Phase 2: Mini-Video Series on Depression with Dr Luckshika Amarakone
Understanding the importance of education and awareness, the project proceeded to its second phase with a mini-video series on depression. Collaborating with esteemed mental health professional Dr. Luckshika Amarakone, the Butterfly Effect 4.0 team shed light on the complexities of depression and offered valuable insights into managing this prevalent mental health issue. The videos, carefully crafted with empathy and expertise, aimed to provide a lifeline of support for those silently battling with depression.
Third Stage: Interactive Entertaining Session at the National Council for Mental Health, Borella
In the concluding stage, the project culminated in an interactive and engaging session at the National Council for Mental Health in Borella.
