Lady Gaga launches study into mental health of US high school students
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 20 April 2015
Lady Gaga has launched a new project aimed at promoting better mental health for US high school students. The scheme, called The Emotional Revolution, is a partnership between her own Born This Way Foundation and Yale University’s Center For Emotional Intelligence.
The first stage is to survey US high school students about their feelings, ahead of the first Emotional Revolution Summit at Yale in October, where the singer and educators will meet to discuss the project’s findings.
Introducing the project, Gaga said in a video: “I know what it’s like to feel depressed, to feel humiliated, to feel isolated, and I know too many people that, no matter who they are, where they come from, they’re feeling the same way that I do. It was so beautiful in a way that our sadness bonded us at the shows and yet I so badly wanted to understand why that cloud was there at all”.
