Dark Discussion is a flagship initiative of the Shamshir Foundation, born from a simple yet powerful idea — that conversations around mental health, trauma, grief, and identity deserve both space and sensitivity.
What started as a small, intimate gathering has grown into a movement — bringing together voices often left unheard. Dark Discussion creates a brave space where individuals can speak, listen, and connect without fear of judgment. Whether it’s the weight of unspoken emotions, the confusion of cultural expectations, or the quiet battles fought in silence, this platform welcomes it all.
Through live panels, creative expressions, community-led dialogues, and online engagement, we open doors to healing by embracing the darkness — not avoiding it. Every story matters. Every silence speaks.
Our discussions have been covered across social platforms and digital media, sparking meaningful change in how communities approach vulnerability, mental wellness, and collective empathy.
This is not just a conversation. It’s a cultural shift.
You are not alone in the dark — we’re in it, together.
