Today we would like to draw your attention to an exciting event that we, the Physics Ombudspersons, have organized for you with the support of the SFBs 1238 and 1601, the TRR 183, and the Cluster of Excellence ML4Q; a talk and workshop on „Mental health in times of crisis“ taking place on 24.01.2024.

We live in times when the framework in which we move safely and comfortably because we are familiar with it, is no longer as tight as we were used to for a long time. Crises, or events perceived as crises, influence our daily lives and can make us feel overwhelmed, powerless, and helpless. There seem to be numerous events that can have a lasting impact on our everyday lives, be it climate change, various wars and conflicts, (post-)pandemic transformations, and many other global happenings and human-caused disasters.

In a lecture and discussion on „Mental health in times of crisis“, our trainer Anahita Sattarian (M.Sc. Psychology) wants to answer questions regarding what these crises have in common, how these crises affect us both individually and within our communities, and show coping mechanisms, and fostering resilience in the face of difficulties. Everybody is invited! We hope to see many of you there, there is no registration needed here!
