The aim of the Wellbeing Week is to offer students and staff of the University of Eastern Finland a wellbeing promoting program throughout the week. During Wellbeing Week, a variety of activities will be organised to provide tools to increase one’s own wellbeing and support the ability to concentrate.
For example, the Finnish Kennel Club’s Care Dogs will visit campuses and a lecture aimed at international students will offer tips on how to survive the Finnish winter and polar night. SYKETTÄ sports services will organize the traditional Sports Afternoon, and the week will culminate with a day trip to Tiilikkajärvi National Park. ISYY will also share on Instagram various wellbeing-related tips.
