The primary objective of the seminar is to enhance participants’ comprehension of mental health and well-being concepts, as well as the needs, activities, and approaches that can support young people’s mental health.
During adolescence, young individuals encounter intricate physiological, emotional, social, and cognitive changes.
Understanding various aspects of adolescent development and mental health equips these professionals with insights into young people’s developmental stages, common reactions, challenges, and effective support strategies.
Designed to enhance the competencies of professionals working with young individuals in formal and informal settings, the seminar spans 2.5 days and delves into the mental health of young people.
