BodyTalks is a project run by the Global Shapers Brussels Hub meant to raise awareness, through storytelling, of the various ways in which body image links with mental health. The words we hear, the pictures we see, the mirrors we look into, the media we consume – they all shape our views of ourselves and others.

This project aims at shedding light on how much we share and how little it takes to make a dent into someone’s self-confidence. Ultimately, it will hopefully make all of us reading these stories that little bit more aware and that little bit kinder to each other.

We collect anonymous stories, we illustrate them, and ultimately we will publish a collection to share with those who need to see it the most. To do that, we need your help! Share your story with us, and we’ll make sure it reaches someone who benefits from it.
