Student Wellbeing is the thematic program of the Counseling Center for Students, and its goal is to improve the quality of studying and student life.
U mjesecu u kojem se obilježava Svjetski dan mentalnog zdravlja (listopad), na Sveučilištu VERN’ je održan prvi ovosezonski Student Wellbeing – i to baš na temu „razgovora o mentalnom zdravlju“.
Na interaktivnoj radionici koju su vodile Marijana Bokun, mag. polit. soc. i stručna suradnica u Udruzi Igra te Maria Santini, mag. psych., studenti su učili kako razgovarati o mentalnom zdravlju, kako se nositi s izazovima svakodnevice, te koji su im resursi u lokalnoj zajednici dostupni za stručnu podršku i pomoć. Poseban je naglasak bio na destigmatizaciji mentalnog zdravlja, razvoju emocionalne inteligencije te razvoju empatije.
The workshop at VERN was part of the Brave Together initiative, which the Game Association has been implementing for the fifth year with the support of Maybelline New York , with the aim of destigmatizing mental health and providing psychosocial support to young people .
"We thank VERN' University for their excellent organizational and logistical support and for enabling the training within the framework of Student Wellbeing . The cooperation was an exceptional pleasure and we hope to continue joint initiatives," the guests emphasized.
The head of VERN's Student Counseling Center , Nataša Jeličić, also reminded students that they can also turn to the Counseling Center for support, which was the first in Croatia to launch a student wellbeing program with the intention of improving the quality of studying and student life.
