Leading Wellbeing: A Growth Mental Health Pandemic
Event Information
About this event
Children learn and form ideas by watching what is happening around them. They are curious and natural philosophers. Having naturally open minds, they seek to question and observe the behaviour of their role models to make sense of their world.
The Youth Mental Health in Aotearoa report from the University of Auckland reported that there is a 'silent pandemic of mental morbidity infiltrating our youth population'.
The report warns that there is an ‘unappreciated urgency’ around this issue.
What is causing this upward trend?
What armour can we offer our young adults to protect themselves?
Join Steve and Rebecca to discuss the issue and provide some practical solutions that teachers and school leaders can do to help our young people in these challenging times.
