Affect, Mental Health, and the Commons: Participatory Pathways to Collective Healing

In this episode, we explore the intersection of mental health, grief, and participatory approaches to building collective well-being. How can we reimagine mental health as a shared commons, where safe spaces, digital platforms, and community-led tools like legislative theater enable healing and inclusion? Through the lens of affect, we discuss the power of collective action, intersectionality, and mutual aid in addressing societal and environmental challenges, fostering resilience and transformation. Join us for a conversation that bridges personal struggles with community empowerment.
