Studying with a disability or chronic illness is often accompanied by an increased burden or stress level. Students with disabilities or chronic illnesses are faced with the task of reconciling their studies with their own physical or mental stress situation and of countering potential hurdles.

With the workshop series "Empowerment and Resilience with Disability or Illness", the Diversity Management of H-BRS offers students with disabilities, chronic or mental illnesses the opportunity to develop important skills in the areas of self-regulation, stress management and empowerment.

The three-part workshop series will take place from 14 to 16 December 2022. Participation is free of charge. The workshop will be held in German.

Do you have a disability or chronic illness and would like to participate? Under the following link you can register as a participant until 12 December 2022. With your registration you are automatically registered for all three workshop dates.

The event is part of Respekt! Inklusiv, format of our university initiative Respekt! Time for Diversity, Time for Sustainability.
