Evaluation of the Testimony Project

Mental Health Media’s Testimony Project aimed to increase understanding of and challenge attitudes towards mental health using the testimonies of survivors of mental asylums. The project used a series of exhibitions, with short films, art work, and installations, around the country to promote its messages. The evaluation used an action research methodology that allowed responses from viewers to be incorporated in developing the next stages of the project.
