Mental health doesn’t exist in isolation.

It shows up in our schools, our workplaces, and our communities — especially in times of uncertainty and change.

What does it take to move

from talking about mental health

to changing the story — together?

21 February 2026's edition is for those changemakers committed to shifting mental health narratives in the Philippines — from stigma and silence toward care, shared responsibility, and collective action. Also for Filipinos overseas who want to take action on creating impact at home.

 

Building on Metamorphany’s Begin–Build–Bloom journey and the Kwentong Kalinga campaign, this gathering explores how mental health narratives show up in everyday life — in schools, workplaces, and communities facing climate-related stress — and what it takes to shift them from stigma and silence toward care and shared responsibility.

How do we move from talking
about mental health to truly changing
how it’s understood, supported, and lived?

Join us for stories, dialogue,
and breakout conversations
designed to turn insight into action.
