 <\/p>\n

I just want to give readers of the blog a heads-up on a cool project that will be taking shape in the second half of this year (2020).<\/p>\n

I attended an online meeting on Wednesday with some of the Wellbeing Ambassadors, Student Council members and staff and we chatted about a student-led mental health promotion project for this year.<\/p>\n

We don’t know yet what that project will be, what it will look like, but we have a very good team assembled.<\/p>\n

We have people from the highly successful Be a Better Human<\/a> Campaign.<\/p>\n

We have Wellbeing Ambassadors<\/a> and Student Council<\/a> members who will meet regularly to create a vision for what the project will be.<\/p>\n

And we have staff members from designers, psychologists, managers and expert communicators to help bring that student vision to life.<\/p>\n

Why am I telling you about a project that has no shape yet?<\/p>\n

Because you might have some ideas. You may have some thoughts on what is needed to raise the mental health of the Flinders Community.<\/p>\n

What do you think we need to be promoting to the wider student (and staff) community about mental health during this very strange time in history?<\/p>\n

What has been helping you cope, and would telling others about that be helpful to them?<\/p>\n

So who should you send those ideas to?<\/p>\n

Well you can start with me (gareth.furber@flinders.edu.au<\/a>) and I’ll forward to the students.<\/p>\n

Later on, when the project is starting to take shape, I’ll provide some more direct contacts so you can have your say on what you’d like to see in a university-wide campaign on the topic of mental health.<\/p>\n

I’ll also be blogging the development of the project on here, so you get a back-stage pass to how these projects take shape.<\/p>\n
