Suicide rates of Indigenous youths in Canada, Australia and USA are up to 50% higher than the general population. These disparities emphasise the intersection of systemic inequities, historical trauma, and limited access to culturally appropriate mental health care, which require urgent and targeted health interventions. The documentary 'Strength of our Roots’ aims to highlight the importance of a culturally aware approach to mental health, and how these young leaders are promoting that in their own cultures, while honouring their elders. At #OYW24, we interviewed seven Indigenous young leaders, supported by Kokoro, who are promoting access to and awareness of mental health resources.
