The winter in Hamburg can be quite long and grey, especially for international students, making it challenging for them to prioritize mental health during their studies.

In December, we came up with something special for the students! In an impulse lecture by the psychologist and coach Luisa Jarr and a guided meditation by Prof. Cornelius Herstatt, students were provided with useful tools to support their mental health.

This workshop was conducted in collaboration with students from James Madison University on June 2, 2023, at the Digital Hub Logistics. Fifteen students from James Madison University and ten TUHH students worked on the question, "How might my sustainable workplace look like in 15 years?"

Moderated by the UIF Team (Amanda Baum, Luise Degen, Dr. Malte Krohn), the students were guided through a Design Thinking Sprint and developed prototypes. In the afternoon, they collectively took a sustainability-themed tour of the Hafen City.

This workshop titled "Digital Campus" was organized and conducted by the UIF Cohort 22/23.
