Description
The Attune Project is seeking to surface the unseen and unheard impact of ACE's on the mental health of young people aged 10 - 24 years old through the lens of arts based research. Considered alongside quantitative analysis of 3 large data sets (Oxwell, Reach and Headstart) the insight gained is informing the co-design of a serious game, paying due regard to the principles of Narrative Exposure Therapy. The central tenant throughout the project is youth voice.
