- Oct 110:30 AMMind & Body: Support and empowerment for students with chronic health conditionsMIND AND BODY:SUPPORT AND EMPOWERMENT FOR STUDENTS WITH CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS. This weekly group is for students adjusting to coping with chronic health conditions in a university setting. This is a safe space for students to share their experiences and support each other in managing their health while also managing the challenges of college life. This group is a joint effort between medical and mental health services to ensure that students are cared for in a complete and holistic manner.' This session is held by Jennifer Fox, PhD (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/jennifer-fox/) & Ryan Grade BSN, RN (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/ryan-grade/) For many concerns that students face- like overwhelming stress, anxiety, difficult relationships, depression, academic difficulties, and more – group therapy is the best option for support and healing. Facilitated by SHaW counselors, our therapy groups encourage peer support, promote emotional wellbeing, and increase a felt sense of connection. Participants often find that they feel less alone in their struggles and walk away with newfound support and ideas for coping.

- Oct 111:00 AMOnline Workshop: Teaching Practical Diplomacy SkillsIn most countries, new diplomats are not sufficiently prepared to carry out their duties. Lacking many of the skills needed to work in embassies and foreign ministries, and having received almost no formal training, they spend years learning fundamental competencies on the job. That hurts the effectiveness and impact of diplomacy globally. Nicholas Kralev, the founding executive director of the Washington International Diplomatic Academy, thinks that academia can and should help prepare more directly the next generation of diplomats for the daily work of professional diplomacy. He is trying to encourage more professors and universities to teach practical diplomacy skills. Cambridge University Press recently published his book, "Diplomatic Tradecraft," the first-ever practical diplomacy textbook. In this workshop, Kralev will share his experience designing and executing professional diplomacy training. After reviewing the core skill sets of modern diplomacy, he will offer suggestions on teaching those skills in an academic environment. He will also provide insights into diplomacy careers, which can help students better understand the profession and make more informed decisions about pursuing it.
