ECI Workshop – Share Your Initiative Proposal

1. Title of your ECI
Protect Youth Mental Health 

2. The Issue
Many young people are increasingly struggling with their mental health, especially due to the influence of social media and unrealistic standards. Constant comparison, pressure to fit in, and idealized lifestyles can negatively affect self-esteem and well-being. Mental health is a crucial part of young persons development, yet it is still not taken seriously enough and often overlooked at. 

3. Proposed EU Action
The EU should take action by making mental health support more accessible for young people. This could include expanding free counseling services, raising awareness, and creating safe spaces where young people can seek help without stigma. 

4. Campaign Strategy
The campaign should focus on clearly defined target groups such as young people, parents, schools, and organizations that support mental health. Its key message should encourage individuals to take control of their screen time and prioritize their mental well-being over unrealistic standards. To reach a board audience, the campaign can use a mix of social media, workshops, and presentations in schools and universities, creating both awareness and practical guidance. 

5. Why should people support your ECI?

People should support this ECI because mental health is essential for a healthy and balanced society. Supporting young people in protecting their mental well-being not only improves their quality of life but also strengthens communities as a whole. By taking action now, we can create a safer, more supportive environment for future generations.
