K EY INSIGHTS
Students avoid seeking help for mental health issues,
due to peer pressure and stigma attached with
mental health, despite knowing mental health
professionals are their best possible option.
R ationale
This is urgent and necessary as thousand of students
suffer from the ingrained stigma associated with
mental health professionals , and our platform can
successfully bridge the gap.
ACTIONS
Creating a platform that fosters trust and anonymity R ATIONALE
between student and the counsellor. Platform which
allows parents, friends or relatives to use it on their
behalf that allows them to help the person they ’re
watching struggle.
R ationale
T he solutions presented by friends and the parents,
though in good will, may not be accurate, so if the
counselors and parents unite we could solve this issue
from the root level.

How might we design a platform built to connect the individual or their devoted family members to the counselors for
innovating a product for Arya, that mitigates their current issue of peer stigma and lack of trust and improves their
experience in accomplishing mental peace and well-being among students
