The ninth seminar in the 2024/2025 academic year series “Man and subjectivity in reality: in the light of critical realism” will be held on May 23 in Szczecin. The event will be devoted to the topics of mental health and suicidology, taking into account the impact of social and cultural changes on the mental condition of the younger generation.
Representatives of the Nicolaus Copernicus Superior School will take part in the seminar. They will give presentations on the cultural and social factors of escapist attitudes and suicidal behavior among young people, as well as the mental health crisis among youth.
The results of research conducted by the Nicolaus Copernicus Superior School as part of the project entitled “Suicidology – state of knowledge analysis and educational campaign,” financed by the Minister of Science, will also be presented.
The event is a continuation of an interdisciplinary debate on the condition of modern man in the context of changing social, cultural, and mental realities.
It is organized in a hybrid mode – simultaneously in the building of the Academy of Applied Sciences at the Society for General Knowledge in Szczecin, 15 Monte Cassino Street and online – to enable the attendance of a wide range of participants from various research centers and expert communities.
The seminar will be an opportunity for reflection, exchange of knowledge, and integration of scientific and educational communities and practitioners dealing with mental health and youth issues in the era of contemporary social change.
