Why the project started
Muôn Màu – “a thousand colours” – explores mental health and neurodivergence in the Vietnamese community in Czechia. Building on earlier TAMly activities, it creates a safe space for making and self-expression – a place where art lets us talk about what we are going through, what shaped us and what usually stays hidden. Because sometimes words are not enough.
Who the project is for
For people who want to think about identity through making, including those who have never painted. The programme is not therapy and does not replace professional care.

How the project ran
We launched the project with its ambassadors on 6 October 2026 at the Skautský institut in Prague. One of them is Elea, who speaks openly about life with ADHD. The team is Kiki, Veronika, Anna, Eli, Linda and Nhi; it is a solidarity project supported by the European Solidarity Corps and co-funded by the European Union.
The programme does not diagnose and is not a health or therapy service. Participants always decide what they wish to share, and difficult topics come with signposting to verified professional support. We report no impact figures yet; initial learning will be published with a clear observation period and participant consent.
Challenges
Designing a creative programme that opens up personal topics without turning participants into patients or spokespeople for a whole community. That needs clear boundaries and verified signposting to professional help.
Impact
No impact data yet – the project has just started
Observation period: Since 6 October 2026
Learning
- The project has only just started, so these are expectations only.
- A creative format needs agreed boundaries before any sharing starts.
- Signposting to professional help has to be available in every part of the programme.
