The Spanish Network of Health Promoting Universities will hold, among all the universities belonging to the Network, the celebration of the Day of Healthy Universities on October 6.
This important day has been very well received at the URJC. More than 330 blood donations, which means 990 lives saved, and together with the Green Office, 300 kg of tangerines have been distributed throughout all the campuses to promote fruit consumption in students.
Although these are not the only activities that have been carried out: workshops on 'emotional strength for day to day', 'increase your success through your posture and movements' or 'health-speak communication' are many other activities that They have been carried out during the month of October and they have tried to get closer to the student community.
From Universidad Saludable they offer activities every month throughout the course focused on the promotion of good habits in the different campuses and venues. In November there will be workshops aimed at good study techniques, emotional regulation, or socio-emotional skills for interns at the Legal Clinic. In addition, during the months of October and November, this entity is participating in two congresses of Health Promoting Universities, both nationally and in Latin America.
