Doha, October 27 (QNA) – University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST) celebrated World Mental Health Day under the fitting theme “Make Mental Health a Priority”. The initiative was led by the department of Student Success and Counselling, under Student Affairs. Students, faculty and staff members from across the Universitys community participated in the lively celebration, featuring a Mental Health Zone, an introductory workshop and a campus walk.

The President of UDST Dr. Salem Al Naemi said: “Health plays a crucial role in the success and happiness of our students. At University of Doha for Science and Technology, we are dedicated to providing a safe and secure environment in which our students can thrive, meet and exceed their potential.

“Since the COVID-19 pandemic, a powerful spotlight has emerged on the need to address and support mental health challenges amongst the global education community, and todays event is an example of UDSTs specific commitment to mental health across the Universitys population.”
