Suma Project: Urban Mental Health

The NGO Proyecto Suma performed screenings and recitals with Juanchi Baleirón, Elena Roger, Leo García and more artists with the aim of spreading healthy habits during confinement. The goal was to raise awareness about the changes that confinement can produce in mood and how changes in our routines derived from care protocols can alter us. The initiative was intended also to emphasize the importance of resting, doing physical activity and, above all, not cutting the bond with loved ones or groups of belonging. The intervention, which last almost two months constitutes a therapeutic action involving the local community to participate in something collective, to talk about psychical well-being during pandemic and generate peace of mind regarding possible sleep disturbances or mood swings. In addition, were provided tools or consultation phones for cases in which professional assistance was required.
