| When: | Th 04-11-2021 12:00 - 17:00 |

Healthy ageing, health and well-being are focal areas of research at the University of Groningen. At the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences there is considerable expertise on these topics and a lot of potential for fruitful collaborations between researchers and students. The aim of this annual symposium, for the first time organized under the umbrella of the newly founded Social Sciences Centre for Health and Well-being is to bring together researchers, PhD and (research) master students who share an interest in healthy ageing, health and well-being from the perspective of the behavioural and social sciences. The symposium serves to inform each other about ongoing work at the faculty, explore opportunities for future collaborations and joint funding proposals, and contribute to the creation of an active Health and Well-Being research community within our Faculty and beyond.
Format
The symposium starts with a walk-in lunch from 12:00-12:30 hrs, followed by keynote speaker Babet Kanis, PhD student from the research unit social psychology at the psychology department of this faculty. Her topic: Opening Pandora’s Box: Is Hope a Source of Well-being or a Torment?
After this, researchers from different research groups within the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences will present their ongoing research projects on one of three research themes:
1. Health in social context and policy development
2. Healthy Ageing
3. Health interventions
Presentations will be short (approximately 10-20 min) to allow for a substantial amount of time for discussions.
