Brief Details:
Joint University Mental-wellness Project (JUMP 2.0) is funded by the University Grants Committee (UGC). Subsequent to the fervent response received, JUMP 2.0 will be launched in October 2022 following the three-year project in 2017. JUMP 2.0 is a 2-year programme that is jointly organized by seven local universities: City University of Hong Kong, The University of Hong Kong, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist University, The Education University of Hong Kong, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Lingnan University (Hong Kong). JUMP 2.0 aims at guiding university students to discover the meaning of life through utilizing positive psychology and experiential learning, thus nurturing their concerns for others and society. The goals include: (1) Facilitating the understanding and knowledge of mental health among university students;(2) Enhancing one’s sense of positive emotion, engagement, positive relationships, meaning, accomplishments, and positive health; (3) Building a positive university atmosphere, and (4) Publicizing mental health knowledge in the local community.
Various activities will be featured in JUMP 2.0 (i.e., workshops, camping, and community programs organized by the university students), as to help university students recognize one’s character and talents, gather joyful experiences, build connections with peers from different universities, commit and contribute to one’s life as well as find the purposes of life.
All of the activities are free of charge, participating students also get an opportunity to receive a Certificate of Appreciation. For further details, please see the attached poster.
