Mann

A collection of 82 poems created in 8 languages by 58 passionate individuals

MEHAR received our first grant from the city of Mississauga to implement a project of poetry collection in 2020. I “Mann” is MEHAR’s first publication, and represents our core belief that art has a deeply influential connection with our mind, mood, thoughts and feelings. “Mann” is the beautiful result of the engagement of individuals who believed in the power of creative writing to spread awareness around mental health and promote overall well-being. The collection of poetry in this book reflects our mind in different life situations within the context of mental, emotional and social well-being. All poems reflect the individual’s state of mind during phases of adversity that left a strong and powerful impact on his or her life. This book is an outcome of our tremendous efforts to engage our community in a creative process amidst the challenging and ever-changing environment caused by a global pandemic.

The virtual launch of our first poetry collection was attended by about 80 members including poets, audience, artists and supporters of MEHAR
