I want to ask whether I should apply for my project. I am working to find ways to help students in India who get suppressed using aspects of mental well-being. Last year, I posted on the forum [1], but unfortunately, I didn’t receive much response. Since then, I’ve tried to connect with people working in the relevant field, numerous organizations, and working bodies. Sadly, the only kind of support out there is in the form of virtual support, online therapy, or similar kinds of damage control measures, often after months of engagement. I failed to find any organization or people who are working as an action-taking body or helping victims by providing any real support. I’ve previously applied to form a working organization for the same cause area, in EA and other grants, but since my project doesn’t deal with providing a digital solution, it was marginalized. I am currently working on the same, as the pattern I’ve mentioned in my post has become more prominent in my associated institution. I can also write a consolidated report for the Answer here or any group working on a similar cause area.
Hello Lizka,
