Participation in student studies

On World Mental Health Day, students of the Odesa MAUP Institute—future psychologists—joined student studies organized by specialists of the Odesa Academy of Continuing Education of the Odesa Regional Council and the Odesa Regional Resource Center for Support of Inclusive Education.
This year's theme of the meeting was dedicated to maintaining mental well-being, self-discovery and emotional balance. 
The purpose of the event was to raise awareness among young people about inclusive education, the importance of taking care of one's own mental health, developing self-regulation skills and the ability to seek help in difficult life situations.
During the studies, students participated in discussions, art therapy exercises and group discussions aimed at:
•deeper self-understanding;
• development of empathy;
• supporting each other;
• search for own internal resources.
Special attention is paid to the topics of emotional literacy, stress resistance and prevention of emotional burnout.
The atmosphere of openness, trust and mutual respect facilitated sincere communication and exchange of experiences.
Such studios became a space for self-understanding, mutual support and strengthening of the psychological culture of student youth. 
We sincerely thank the administration of the KZVO "Odesa Academy of Continuing Education of the Odesa Regional Council" for assistance in the formation of professional competencies of future specialists in the specialty "Psychology".
