Second edition of the CIVIS Program „Mental Health, Sport & Physical Activity” started in Lausanne

After the first edition in 2023, the second edition of the blended intensive program started at the end of march in Lausanne.

The program, which is part of the European university alliance CIVIS, is based on a cooperation of the universities from Athens, Brussels, Madrid, Lausanne and Tübingen. The one-week mobility part at the University of Lausanne will be followed by a virtual part until June 2025. The participating students come from Greece, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Romania and one of the African partner universities (Sfax, Tunisia), whereby various fields of study from the areas of sport and exercise science, physiotherapy, psychology and medicine were involved.

The students and lecturers benefit from an intensive interdisciplinary and transnational exchange on the role of sport, exercise and physical activity for mental health. On behalf of the University of Tübingen, the Department of Education and Health Research of the Institute of Sports Science (Prof. Dr. Gorden Sudeck) is participating in this year's edition of the program. 

The program is co-funded by ERASMUS+ and is based at the CIVIS Health Hub.
