Benny Prawira

Founder and Head Coordinator, Into The Light Indonesia

 

For making the treatment of mental health acceptable—and accessible

Indonesia loses about 20 people a day to suicide: Benny Prawira Siauw is tackling that head on with his organisation Into The Light. It works with young people, universities, the media and the government, with the aim of changing attitudes towards suicide prevention and encouraging a more positive attitude towards mental health in the country, helping to fight stigma and get discussions out into the open.
