New ways of supporting mental health in challenging education settings - evidence on Interventions and Innovations

Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

Early childhood education, schools, and learning environments play a critical role in promoting, protecting,
and caring for children's and young people's mental health, and are more influential on children's
development than any other social institution besides the family. However, the pandemic has disrupted
health and education systems globally, and impacted heavily on communities and individuals in
disadvantaged contexts. As research indicates that mental health conditions have increased across all age
groups, there is a need for new and innovative practices that support mental health and wellbeing in the
education sector. Follow this link to read the complete abstract http://www.eenz.com/epf/abstracts/DAB23293-abstract.pdf
