While browsing the different symbols that are meaningful in Ghana, it urged us to potentially integrate them into our project. This will allow us to connect to the Ghanaian culture through images alone.

Pros: It shows we are conscious of Ghanaian culture and want to learn. Moreover, it will allow us to portray our ideas and goals through a single, meaningful image.
Cons: Choosing the wrong symbol could hinder our project and allow misinterpretation.

The SDG of 'good health and well being' connects to both out majors, with one being in chemistry and the other in psychology. We both want to go into fields that are in the medical sector. Moreover, education is important to spread ideas about health, especially if we are to create a website to educate people on mental health. Every single one of our ideas connects directly to the education SDG because of how it facilitates the spread of information. They all directly and indirectly contribute to the health sector, as mental health is the topic being spread.

After discussing with Dr. Kofi, he provided excellent insight on how to further improve our project. He suggested that we narrow down our consumer base to teens in secondary school. Moreover, he said it would be more effective to create a Facebook page to connect to the 'text savvy' teens in Ghana. He suggested that we should make a trip to Ghana and tour secondary schools to spread our message which is definitely something to consider.

The mission statement we are currently planning on doing is "To combat stigma around the topic of mental health, while providing support, knowledge, and a comfortable space for individuals in Ghana."

Pros: Will allow individuals who are afraid to speak up about their mental health struggles to get help and realize that they are not alone.

Cons: Might conflict with religious/ cultural views.

We can create Youtube videos to link onto the website so it is easier to consume the information. This will contribute to the education sector of the SDGs.

Pros: Will provide varying forms of media for Ghanaian teens to consume and may make some ideas clearer.
Cons: People may skip the videos or not be as receptive to them as textual information.

After discussing our project with Dr. Kofi in our first meeting, he mentioned that there is a big problem in Ghana with teenagers using drugs as a coping mechanism. We were hoping to discuss this within our project and provide alternate coping mechanisms as well as explain the dangers of taking these drugs.

Pros: We have a teacher at USF who has experience with mental health issues in Ghana, who is willing to help us with this aspect of our project. Some of the people using these drugs might not realize how much harm it is causing them/ that there are other ways to deal with the issues they are experiencing.

Cons: The individuals who take these drugs might think that we are talking down on them, reprimanding them for using the drugs. We are focusing solely on teenagers while it might be a widespread issue.

The stigma around mental illness results in sending kids to religious institutes. Some believe that praying will cure any disorders, and that people with schizophrenia or depression are labelled as having demons in them. Perhaps we will be able to add information about religion and negative stigma due to it on the website to educate people in Ghana.

Pros: Will potentially clear up any misunderstandings and allow for a more open environment around religion and mental health.
Cons: May be offensive to some and can result in backlash.

After speaking with Dr. Kofi, he urged us to integrate Facebook into our project. Perhaps along with a website, we can create a Facebook page that contains helpful links and a gateway to reach our website. This will benefit the education sector of SDGs in order to further spread the message.

Pros: Touching base with teenagers on a platform that they will use and will be able to easily access our website.
Cons: Narrows down the target audience to teenagers, which may exclude older audiences.
