Visitors to ÉpiSens feel what it is like, both physically and emotionally, to live with various mental health disorders including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Thanks to its multisensory immersive design, ÉpiSens has the goal of raising awareness amongst the general public in case they recognize signs of mental health disorders in young people aged 16 to 35. It accomplishes this by appealing to people's sense of empathy and by challenging stigmas present in society.
