Universidad Nacional del Nordeste launches mental health awareness program

The Universidad Nacional del Nordeste (UNNE) is conducting its second annual Mental Health Promotion and Awareness Days throughout October. The initiative, led by the Labor Wellbeing Area, aims to support students, faculty, and staff in managing challenges such as exam stress, financial concerns, and interpersonal difficulties.

Activities held across various campuses and the Rectorate building include workshops on psychological first aid and academic stress, recreational activities, and organized social breaks. The program seeks to integrate mental health into the university experience, recognizing its impact on academic performance and professional wellbeing. Additionally, the university utilizes its Psychosocial Cabinet, established in 2021, to provide ongoing support to regular students.
