Why as a team did you choose to focus on this challenge?

We chose to focus on this challenge because there are a lot of teenagers that struggle with mental health problems.


What do you know now about the challenge that you didn't know before?

We learned that 1 in 3 teens have experienced some form of mental health problems.


What have you learnt about your Hero?

The challenges our hero faces is feeling depressed, lonely. unhappy, lost and suicidal. They see their friends drifting from them and our hero thinks they are not good enough.


If you could improve one thing for your Hero what would that be?

If we could improve one thing for our hero it would be to make them happier and not suicidal or depressed.


Do you have any ideas for a potential solution? No matter how raw, share them with your Mentors for feedback.

One solution we are considering is an app or website that could help our hero.


Ask your Mentor anything …. This is a chance to ask your Mentors a direct question relating to your Big Idea.

Do you have any experience with mental health problems?
