[Sulaymaniyah/KRI] — To commemorate World Mental Health Day, the Counseling Center at Kurdistan Technical Institute (KTI), in collaboration with the University of Garmian, Garmian Technical and Vocational Institute, and National Institute, has organized a comprehensive three-day scientific event aimed at promoting psychological well-being within academic institutions.

The primary objective of the initiative is to raise awareness about mental health and highlight the vital importance of students visiting psychological counseling centers. During the event, speakers and specialists will emphasize how early psychological support can effectively reduce academic stress, assist students in coping with daily pressures, and address mental health challenges before they turn into severe burdens.

The event features a series of specialized panel discussions scheduled across multiple campuses over the course of three days:

• Sunday: Kurdistan Technical Institute (Conference Hall)

• Monday: University of Garmian

• Tuesday: Garmian Technical and Vocational Institute

Through this joint academic effort, the participating institutions aim to foster an open dialogue around mental health, dismantle social stigmas, and create a supportive educational environment that prioritizes students\' mental and emotional well-being alongside their academic success.
