On September 27, 2024, the OCAK IZI DERNEGI association organized an event at the Türk Kızılay Balıkesir Şubesi to present the results of the MP4s – Mindfulness Practices for Students in Society project. The event, which brought together 50 participants, provided a comprehensive overview of the various initiatives and deliverables of the project, with a particular focus on the outcomes of PR1, PR2, PR3, PR4, PR5, PR6, PR9, and PR10.

The agenda covered several key aspects, beginning with a general introduction to the MP4s project, followed by the presentation of a European survey conducted under PR1 to better understand the challenges and concerns of students. Participants then had the opportunity to explore the Mindfulness Toolbox (PR2), the guidance tool and structure of SIT4Planet (PR3 and PR4), as well as the manuals for trainers and students (PR5 and PR6). Finally, discussions focused on policy recommendations for higher education institutions and society (PR9 and PR10).

This event provided an opportunity to share the progress of the project and engage in valuable discussions on the integration of mindfulness in higher education, as well as its potential impact on both students and society.
