DSAf Research Morning

Stellenbosch University and the University of Cape Town launched the Caring Universities project to learn more about the risk factors and trajectory of mental health disorders and document the support needs of students.

At Student Affairs Research Morning on 15 November 2018, the preliminary findings were presented by Dr Jason Bantjies (Psychology Department, SU), Professor Christine Lochner and Ms Janine Roos (Medical Research Council's Unit on Risk and Resilience in Mental Disorders, SU).

"The information gathered in this survey will help universities in South Africa plan effective prevention programmes and implement innovative interventions," said Dr Jason Bantjes.
