Description:
The Resilience project explores how to help individuals develop their ability to ‘bounce back’ from life’s challenges such as unemployment by using internal and external resources.An online toolbox including positive health promotion approaches and guidelines for identifying students at risk will be developed.
Research has been conducted with training and education institutions, local authorities and community organisations to develop a positive lifelong learning approach to wellbeing using resilience theory. There are benefits in education such as reducing drop outs and for employers such as reducing sickness absence.
