The Wellbeing Week of the Student Union of the University of Eastern Finland (ISYY) and the University of Eastern Finland takes place at the campuses on week 40, 1.-5.10.2018. The week will familiarize students and the university staff with local wellbeing operators and give advice on maintaining the wellbeing of your own, your friends and family. The theme of this year’s Wellbeing Week is loneliness.
During the Wellbeing Week, the Student Union will also delight you again with dogs! Just like last year, we have invited joyful dog visitors to be petted on both campuses during one day of the week.
Other programme of the week includes the Wellbeing Fair, Sports Afternoon and campus-specific events. The Student Union’s Smiles and Complaints Week will also take place during the week and offer students a chance to give feedback to ISYY, the University or other parties involved in students’ life.
The Wellbeing Fair is held on Tuesday 2.10.2018 in Kuopio (Snellmania downstairs hall) at 11–14 and on Thursday 4.10.2018 in Joensuu (Carelia upstairs and downstairs entrance hall) at 10–14. At the Wellbeing Fair, you can get to know various organisations involved in wellbeing.
On Tuesday 2.10.2018, you can participate in the opening of the Friend café in Studentia’s chapel in Kuopio. The Friend café is a new meeting place for students in Kuopio organised by the FSHS health group. The café will ensemble once a week on Tuesdays and it usually has a specific theme as well as refreshments and snacks for the participants. Welcome to the opening event!
On the Sports Afternoon on Wednesday 3.10.2018, students and the university staff can take part in various sports activities at campuses and elsewhere. Some of the activities are subject to a small charge and have only a limit number of places. There will be no teaching after 12.15 pm so everyone is able to take part. You can participate in all Sports Afternoon activities also without SYKETTÄ sticker. In addition to the day programme, in Joensuu there will also be a Sports Afternoon after party in Ilona starting at 10 pm.
