UAE students to benefit from GSA wellbeing research
- Create networks that go beyond the boundaries of university geography and service provision and link the partners that influence the entire student experience.
- Universities and student service providers need to invest in the skills and networks required to effectively signpost students across a wide spectrum of health and wellbeing issues to ensure that support is appropriate and proportionate to individuals. There is also an opportunity here for those who partner with universities (such as purpose-built student accommodation providers), albeit with the right training, to work more effectively with universities and healthcare providers to assist with better sign-posting and referrals.
- In-residence community environments with on and off campus student accommodation providers recognising the additional challenges such accommodation presents to students. Private accommodation providers must work harder to provide a community environment where students are supported by an in-residence team and social activities and staffing structures can be designed to support students as they transition away from home.
- Beyond basic services and features of rooms and spaces, the quality of accommodation design has a significant role to play in the health and wellbeing of students. Design factors should, therefore, be considered alongside the quality of services provided, in judging how well a development or building is likely to serve the wellbeing of its occupants, and (as established earlier) their academic outcomes.
- There is an urgent need for large-scale research to be undertaken in collaboration with the further education sector (16 – 18 in the UK) to understand the pre-arrival social and psychological conditions that may predict or prevent the emergence or manifestation of mental health issues and other wellbeing challenges once in higher education.
