Summits

Healthy Minds | Healthy Campuses Summits were signature gatherings that brought together students, faculty, staff, administrators, researchers, and community partners from across British Columbia to explore emerging issues, share promising practices, and advance campus mental health and well-being. Designed as highly interactive learning experiences, the Summits featured keynote presentations, workshops, panel discussions, dialogue sessions, and collaborative activities that encouraged participants to exchange ideas, build connections, and develop practical strategies for creating healthier campus communities. Grounded in the principles of social learning and community engagement, the Summits fostered collective action, innovation, and leadership in mental health promotion and substance use health across the post-secondary sector.
