Mental well-being of youth
We aim to identify and create optimal conditions for a mentally resilient generation, to improve early detection of mental health using technology and to create early interventions and preventive solutions to improve resilience. For this project, we will foster close collaborations between science, youth (mental) healthcare, schools and policy makers.
