About the Commission
The CRUCH University Coexistence and Mental Health Commission was created in July 2022, in response to the concern of university presidents about the increase in students with mental health support needs and the deterioration of coexistence that was evident in universities after the pandemic.
The objective of the commission, made up of experts from the CRUCH universities in the area, is to carry out a diagnosis of the current university context and propose strategies to effectively address the various problems and propose lines of action that favor the care of students.
