TikTok's Commitment to Well-Being: Supporting and Encouraging #MentalHealthAwareness in Bangladesh

Marking World Mental Health Day on October 10th, TikTok is excited to announce its month-long campaign aimed at bolstering mental health awareness throughout October. In celebrating World Mental Health Day, TikTok reaffirms its dedication to combatting mental health stigmas, reflecting the unwavering commitment of its global family.
This year, TikTok leverages the World Mental Health Day platform to amplify the narratives of its diverse experts, creators, and advocates. In a show of solidarity, TikTok has contributed $250,000 to the Rare Impact Fund and was a proud sponsor of its debut benefit held on October 4. This event was conceptualized to fundraise and spotlight organizations dedicated to championing mental health education and services for global youth. The Rare Impact Fund, an initiative by Selena Gomez, addresses pivotal issues of mental health and self-acceptance.
A global in-app survey revealed that 58% of Bangladeshi TikTok users find a sense of belonging on the platform, aligning with global sentiment. Throughout October, TikTok invites its global community to participate in the #MentalHealthAwareness: "Better Together" campaign, sharing stories and well-being journeys.
In Bangladesh, TikTok is thrilled to collaborate with prominent creators and organizations. TikTok campaign's wellness hub page offers curated videos and playlists from experts, providing a comprehensive resource for users to engage with and promote mental well-being.
Esteemed partnerships feature local stalwarts such as Jubaer, Nanjiba, and Saif Sarwar and include a constellation of respected celebrities, community leaders, and influential NGOs like BRAC and Unicef South Asia.
Such collaborations aim to amplify our mental health awareness message. Bangladeshi users are encouraged to share their inspiring stories and personal well-being journeys using the local hashtags #MentalHealth and #SelfCare.
Throughout the month of October, TikTok invites its global community to join the #MentalHealthAwareness: Better Together campaign.
TikTok remains dedicated to supporting the mental health and well-being of its community on and off its platform. The company encourages everyone to learn more about and promote #MentalHealthAwareness for a collective journey towards better mental health.
