Mr Terrence Hugo took on the role as moderator for this session.<\/p>\n
When asked about what she hoped to achieve, Ms Sharrada stated that there were so many organisations dedicated to mental health, but none specifically for the youth and by the youth. She also mentioned that for an organisation to be sustainable and possible, they had to go on the large scale, which was where the National Coalition of Mental Wellbeing came in. Ms Sharrada admitted that she was initially unsure whether the youth\u2019s voices would be heard, but now realized that the youth are capable of running organizations and voicing out opinions. She also emphasised on how she hoped that conversations about mental health would still continue.<\/p>\n
For the launch of the handbook, the emcees invited Sharrada and Dr Philip back to the stage to commence the grand reveal of the highly awaited handbook. The presentation of the handbook was led by Sharrada and Dr Philip. The emcees called upon Dato Bindi, Puan Siti, and the other guests to take a group photo.<\/p>
Mind Matters Network would like to extend its gratitude to Dato Bindi Rajasegaran, Professor Dr Philip George, Ms Vinorra Shaker, Ms Sharrada Segaran, Mr Terrence Hugo, Professor Khoo (Vice Chancellor of IMU) and Puan Siti Subaidah (Protem-Chairman of the National Coalition of Mental Wellbeing).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
