In connection with World Mental Health Day, observed annually on 10 October, the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) and the Student Wellness Centre jointly organised an Art Therapy programme to promote mental health awareness and emotional well-being within the campus community. The student session, held on 10 October 2025, introduced participants to art as a therapeutic medium for emotional expression, healing, and self-exploration, helping them reflect on personal challenges and emotional states through creative processes rather than verbal communication. The programme was facilitated by Ms. Meghna Girish, a trained Art Therapist and postgraduate from the University of Haifa, who guided students through art-based activities that encouraged self-awareness, emotional regulation, and stress relief in a safe and non-judgmental environment. Students from the departments of Social Work, VFX, BBA, and Commerce actively participated, enriching the session through diverse perspectives and shared reflections. A separate Art Therapy session was organised for teaching faculty on 15 October 2025, with participation from the departments of Economics, Physics, English, and Sociology, providing educators with a reflective space for creative expression and emotional exploration. Through guided activities using colours, forms, and symbols, the sessions encouraged participants to express thoughts and emotions that often remain unaddressed in academic settings. Overall, the programme successfully commemorated World Mental Health Day 2025 and, through the collaborative efforts of IQAC and the Student Wellness Centre, fostered a supportive environment that promoted emotional expression, empathy, self-awareness, and holistic well-being across the campus community.
