The Stakeholders
Headline operates in the space between Irish media and mental health sectors.
We each have an interest in making Ireland a safe space for vulnerable people, in telling stories that shape our society, and reflecting the reality of when our society falls short.
It’s important that people actively engaged in mental health provisions and mental health research, and Ireland’s media professionals have a space to share ideas and get a better understanding of the challenges ahead. How do we tell this person’s story without harming others? What issue needs more research and investigation? What policies will allow for better communication between agencies? Involving our stakeholders in Headline’s policy decisions is a core part of our new direction.
