Summary: "Universal stories of healing from depression is an innovative audio-visual resource which has been developed by isee-ilearn to raise awareness of depression in refugee communities … There are three stories from three different communities spoken in English and the languages of Dari (Afghanistan), Karen (Burma) and Sudanese Arabic (Sudan). The stories, which have been developed with people from Afghanistan, Burma and Sudan, reflect the culture, values and traditions of those communities. Using illustrations and spoken dialogue, each story looks at the problems people face in their community as they adjust to change, while they’re establishing themselves and rebuilding their lives in Australia. Each story examines the pressures that can lead to mental health problems in general and depression in particular. Help-seeking and recovery are looked at in a culturally-relevant manner"--Australian Centre for Social Innovation website.
