We are delighted to invite you to the BELHEALTH Webinar, taking place on Thursday, November 28th, 2024.
This online event will focus on the mental health of over 7,000 Belgians, who have been monitored over the past two years. We will present exclusive insights into the evolving trends in anxiety, depression, and burnout, along with an exploration of risk and protective factors impacting mental health. The discussion will also cover the effects of teleworking on mental health and the relationship between burnout and overall well-being.
The webinar provides an excellent opportunity to:
- highlight the critical importance of establishing a mental health monitoring system for the Belgian population
- share the latest results from the BELHEALTH study
- explore opportunities for future collaborations.
As a leading scientific institution, Sciensano plays a crucial role in public health decision-making by coordinating surveillance networks and conducting studies to track disease trends and health determinants. The BELHEALTH project, an integral part of Sciensano’s mission, informs government authorities about the evolving health and well-being needs of the population. By following the same people over time, BELHEALTH aims to provide a clearer understanding of the post-COVID health landscape in Belgium.
We look forward to your participation and valuable contribution to the discussion.
