Global consensus conference
Around the world, student mental health needs on postsecondary campuses are increasing. Yet, no meaningful international research partnerships exist addressing this problem, contributing to the critical gap in the foundation of research and knowledge. Through the Global Consensus Conference, we will define the most important research priorities to improve support for post-secondary student mental health.
The Global Research Network for Postsecondary Student Mental Health has invited students, faculty members, staff and student affairs professionals to participate in a research study titled, Postsecondary Student Mental Health Global Initiative: A Delphi Consensus Study.
