About Mental Health Awareness Days November 27-29, 2024
The Mental Health Awareness Days 2024, which will take place from 27 to 29 November, are a joint initiative of Leipzig University, Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, yDiv/iDiv and HIGRADE/UFZ. Organised by its graduate academies and occupational health management units, we want to support you as researchers at our universities and research institutions. The aim of the graduate institutions and occupational health management is to inform and raise awareness of how you, as researchers at our universities and research institutions, can deal with challenging situations and conflicts in your research activities. Doctoral and postdoctoral researchers are exposed to high levels of mental stress and we would like to support you with the topics presented in order to defuse mental stress situations, set limits or even contribute to your well-being.
