At UAntwerp, we believe that health isn’t a sprint – it’s a choice you make every day. Exercising doesn’t need to be intense or time-consuming to enhance your well-being. From active commuting to short walking breaks, from running in the park to taking the stairs at work – every step counts.
Colleagues share their experiences, tips and small habits that bring more energy, focus and balance to their workdays. Be inspired by how they stay active – both literally and figuratively.
How can you respond as a witness to inappropriate behaviour without putting yourself in a difficult position? That question is at the heart of a new bystander training programme now available at UAntwerp. The initiative is timely, as Lien Smets, training officer at HR (DP&O), explains why the training is more important than ever.
With a major prevention project, our university is focusing even more strongly on the mental well-being of its students. Truyken Ossenblok and Femme Swinnen from the Study Advice and Student Counselling Service are in charge of this project. And they want to involve as many colleagues as possible.
