Youth voices. Strong minds.
RePlay: MindShift is a six hour youth mental health innovation lab by Revivals Egypt. Young people explore challenges affecting their wellbeing, use Miro to understand and map those challenges, and build creative digital responses with AI tools. MindShift is part of Youth Voices, Strong Minds, supported through the International Children’s Peace Prize Project Fund by KidsRights and State of Youth.
Understand a real challenge. Map what young people need. Build something tangible that responds to it.
The format
A guided journey from youth mental health conversation to problem mapping, prototyping, live demos, and reflection.
Explore youth mental health and wellbeing issues such as stress, loneliness, digital wellbeing, academic pressure, stigma, and access to support.
Each participant or team uses their own Miro board to map users, needs, barriers, possible responses, and the simplest useful version of an idea.
Prompt, prototype, design, test, debug, and iterate. Turn the mapped challenge into a working app, platform, tool, resource, or digital prototype.
Present the challenge, what you learned, and what you built. Close with feedback, prizes, participant reflection, photos, and a final conversation.
MindShift is not a clinical service. Projects should support awareness, accessibility, communication, connection, education, or everyday wellbeing, not diagnose, treat, or replace professional mental health care.
Why this matters
MindShift connects youth mental health dialogue with creative problem solving, AI literacy, product thinking, and hands on building. Young people will move from conversation to understanding, idea, prototype, and reflection.
Participants begin by exploring real youth wellbeing challenges in a structured, respectful space before choosing what they want to address.
Young people are not only an audience. They identify needs, shape responses, and build prototypes based on issues they consider meaningful.
Participants practice AI literacy, product thinking, digital design, and prototyping while applying those skills to social and wellbeing challenges.
Teams consider users, accessibility, privacy, safety, and the limits of technology when working with sensitive mental health topics.
The event is designed to produce Miro problem maps, team concepts or prototypes, live demos, participant reflections, and feedback.
MindShift contributes primarily to the project’s Mental Health & Resilience Workshops, with youth dialogue components and awareness content generated from the event.
Part of Youth Voices, Strong Minds: MindShift is a Revivals Egypt activity supported through the International Children’s Peace Prize Project Fund by KidsRights and State of Youth. Miro supports the event as the visual planning and collaboration platform.
