About this Event
Fighting the Unseen Impacts of COVID-19: Tools and Strategies for Promoting Mental Health and Wellbeing in Ourselves and Other Young People During the Pandemic
Do you know someone who is feeling stress and anxiety related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19)? Wondering if there is anything you can do to help? We learn more each day from health experts about the causes, symptoms, and ways we can help stop the spread of the virus. Yet, the pandemic also has unseen and often deeply personal impacts on our mental health as we try to manage feelings of uncertainty and fear. For those who are most vulnerable, the stress related to staying safe and practicing good hygiene can present a real and particularly acute challenge.
The YouthPower Youth Engagement Community of Practice and YouthLead.org are co-hosting a webinar to explore the “unseen” side of the COVID-19. The webinar will address:
- The seen and unseen impacts of the pandemic on our mental health, especially on vulnerable groups;
- Specific tools and resources we can adopt to promote wellbeing for ourselves and others in our community.
- Opportunities for young changemakers to play a vital role in disseminating fact-based information on COVID-19 and promoting mental health.
This webinar has been developed in collaboration with the YouthPower Youth Engagement CoP.
