STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH: RESPONDING TO THE CRISIS

COVID-19 has intensified dislocation amongst campus communities, propelled healthcare students onto the front line of a global pandemic and upended traditional teaching models; but it will pass – and when it does, preexisting issues will resurface compounded. This conference will break-down the cultures, economic factors, social and institutional pressures that contributed to dramatic rises in disclosures of mental health issues and student suicides at universities in the UK – providing delegates with the knowledge and tools to ensure that students return to campuses better equipped after the pandemic.

Weds 30 September 2020, 15:00pm to 16:30       

The COVID-19 pandemic has put a spotlight on the rights and needs of older persons. While everyone has been affected, evidence shows that older people are among those most at risk of complications from the disease, with fatality rates for those over 80 years of age five times the global average. They are also at greater risk of poverty, discrimination and isolation. Older persons have been hit particularly hard by the virus itself but it has been the failure to protect their rights in the response that has led to unnecessary deaths, unmet health and care needs, increased isolation, discrimination and stigma.

This webinar will:

  • Recognise the impact of COVID-19 on the wellbeing and dignity of older persons across the Commonwealth
  • Raise awareness of ageism, stigma and discrimination against older people in the COVID-19 response and the need to foster intergenerational connections across the Commonwealth
  • Reflect on how The Commonwealth needs to adapt to ensure the rights of its citizens of all ages are respected

The experience of being European in the UK is changing: and so, therefore, is the role of the third sector in attending to the needs of our communities. But are we adapting adequately to the changing needs of our population?

Do we understand the potential implications of current changes on the groups we serve?

Join New Europeans and the Brexit Civil Society Alliance on November 19th from 4.30 – 7pm at City Hall for a discussion of key issues for Europeans – and therefore, for the third sector.

We will be touching on the EU Settlement Scheme; hate crime and discrimination; and representation and community cohesion. We will also be launching the results of New Europeans’ research on the preparedness of the sector to support clients accessing the Settlement Scheme (the survey is still open until November 6th – please participate here).

We are particularly interested in inviting organisations to who do not already work in the immigration, migrant integration or advice sectors. We want to share and explore how these issues affect the third sector as a whole.

The event is free but registration is required. Book your place here.
