In today’s world, when discussing well-being, it is impossible to avoid hearing about the importance of sleep and how lack of sleep is becoming an increasing threat to both individual well-being and public health. Another recurring theme, mentioned almost weekly, is resilience, and the media is overflowing with various self-help tips for developing and maintaining resilience.
In the webinar, we will hear timely theoretical and research-based presentations on sleep deprivation and resilience. These themes are also present in the everyday lives of university students and staff, affecting their overall well-being. The experts in T6.4 will provide commentary highlighting how universities can support the well-being of both students and staff, particularly from the perspective of healthy sleep and resilience.
Webinar is organized by T 6.4. Student and Staff Well-being Toolkit together with the Resilience Lab (WP10).
