“Boosting Mental Health in Children and Adolescents”
We are pleased to invite you to a special event “Boosting Mental in Children and Adolescents: Promotion, Prevention and Intervention” organised within the framework of the IMPROVA project and hosted by the University of Deusto. The event will feature a keynote address by the distinguished Professor Pim Cuijpers—a leading global expert in psychological interventions and youth mental health. It will also include the presentation of the IMPROVA programme, a digital intervention to boost children and adolescent mental health implemented with more than 5000 students in four EU countries.
This is a unique opportunity for scholars, practitioners, and stakeholders across disciplines to engage with cutting-edge knowledge and practical approaches for enhancing the mental health and well-being of young people.
We encourage all members of the academic community—from psychology and education to public health and social work—to attend and contribute to this critical conversation. It will take place on June 5 2025, 09:00 – 11:00 at University of Deusto & Online.
