Mental wellbeing ' a topic of concern'

Foreign students from several countries are taking a tour through the international landscape of mental health care.

Within the context of internationalisation this programme intends:

  • to bring an attractive offer for the international (exchange) students in nursing/midwifery as well as for our regular students,

  • to involve lectures as well as students in the dynamic process of internationalization,

  • to contribute constructively to the promotion of the blended mobility,

  • to reinforce the "internationalization at home".

 The programme intends:

  • To be open to diversity and unity in health care in Europa
  • To broaden the perspective of international mental health care
  • To be open to economic, ethical and social policy in healthcare in Belgium and other countries
  • To deepen and explore the cultural sensitivity;
    • to deepen and explore earlier professional knowledge, insight, skills, attitudes and competences in mental health care,

    • to deliver nursing/midwifery care from an evidence based perspective

    • to improve the knowledge of medical English
    • to make English literature more accessible
    • to form many, various attitudes: e.g. open mindedness, tolerance, critical thinking, global engagement
  • To practice skills: e.g. communication; teamwork;
