Paying attention to students' mental health – options for action for lecturers

Mental health is a key prerequisite for successful studying. Lecturers have a decisive influence on the study environment: they can increase stress – or create a healthy learning environment through small, conscious gestures and structures.

This workshop is being organised from a student perspective to mark World Mental Health Day at Bern's universities.

Together with lecturers, we want to exchange experiences, highlight current figures and student voices, and develop concrete ideas on how teaching can be designed to strengthen mental health.
