In response to the growing concern surrounding mental health issues in higher education, students at DEN have taken proactive steps to spearhead several multifaceted initiatives to address and alleviate this pressing issue. For instance, students have meticulously organised and evaluated blog entries focusing on mental health topics to provide valuable resources and insights for their peers. Additionally, they have crafted a comprehensive article for DEN’s annual publication, aiming to engage students by offering in-depth discussions and personal stories related to mental health challenges and coping strategies. Furthermore, the students have organised various events throughout the academic year, including a carefully planned global cuisine festival. This festival aims to foster meaningful conversations about mental health and provide a supportive platform for students to openly express their anxieties and experiences with mental health issues in a safe and inclusive environment.
