Description

This Summer Course will be held face-to-face and there will also be the possibility of participating live online through ZOOM. In the registration process, please select the participation of your choice: face-to-face or live online

In December 2019, the first cases of a new virus began to be known, which was later called Covid19. Much has been researched and written since then on the mechanisms of contagion, why in some people this disease is so serious and how to protect ourselves from it. But there is much less information that deal with the psychological effects of becoming seriously ill from this disease or how the grieving processes of those who have lost a family member have been affected by sanitary conditions of Covid19. There is also less information about how the pandemic and the different forms of lockdowns have impacted on the general population and on groups of special vulnerability.

This course, designed for students with basic notions of psychology, medicine, nursing or public health seeks to offer a broad vision, based on evidence, on the mental health of people during and after the pandemic. Two thematic blocks will be the main elements of its content: understanding how and why the pandemic has affected us and knowing the possible alternatives for preventive and rehabilitative interventions.
