Based on the daily problematics of the current globalized world, this article aims to reiterate the relevance of Ethics' studies in higher education. The analysis utilises the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) concept and the Kantian reflections on education to offer a constructive way to stimulate students' moral growth. The study begins with an introduction of its significance, then it considers the materials studied and the methodology used. Through the collection of bibliographical data, a descriptive approach to Howard Barrows' instruction method and the Kantian thought is given. Afterwards, the paper explains the harmonization between both, showing how Ethics can and should be debated during professional training. It also explains the role of the PBL in this process, concluding that both are the perfect combination for allowing not only the students but also the tutors, to develop their individual common sense and to better adapt to unexpected challenges.
Since the titled Global Refugee Crisis of 2013, the number of refugees has been constantly increasing. In 2018, the global number of persons of concern identified by UNHCR was 70.8 million, of which more than 25.9 million were refugees, and about half of them were below the age of 18. Refugees are subjected to multiple risk factors before, during, and after their displacement. Besides, the conditions why they had to flee their countries, the insecurity, and anxiety connected to their future, inter alia, are among the stressors that may affect refugees mental well-being. The relation between the existing international instruments related to refugees, mainly those concerning their right to health and the actual care they receive, compose complex scenery that asks for more attention to allow refugees to have positive outcomes, such as improving their mental well-being, which assists in social inclusion. This paper aimed at showing the gap between active mental health care rights and government practices, specifically those within the Greek context. This was made through exploratory research of qualitative nature, based on literature from the period of 2009-2019 and legal and international documents related to descriptors such as mental health care and refugees.
This article aims at analysing how psychosocial support (PSS) projects focused on refugees' mental health might contribute to improving their well-being and resilience in camps or during resettlement. Their journeys usually cause an increase in individuals’ mental health instability, not only related to trauma but also because they require the capability of adjusting to different realities and cultures. This paper works toward answering the question of how PSS potentially capacitates refugees to continuously adapt to new environments through exploratory research of qualitative nature.
