Following a similar successful event held in Sydney earlier this year, Youngbloods VIC recently wrapped up an insightful evening of discussion at their panel event Do You Mind? – What I wish I knew as a Youngblood, held on 6 November.
Organised in collaboration with @nevernotcreative and hosted by @movember at their office rooftop, the evening was attended by more than 60 young people in our industry and featured a stellar panel of creative, marketing and academic viewpoints on the topic of mental health in advertising.
The panel’s insightful, empathetic and practical advice fueled an important conversation about how the next generation of advertising can raise the standard of mental well-being within the industry, whilst still kicking goals at work.
