Going on a study abroad trip comes with various challenges, such as learning a foreign language, worrying about finances, discovering a new culture, or being separated from family. The COSTABEX project, supported by Erasmus+ funds, has developed an educational program that prepares students for study abroad, primarily focusing on mental health.
Students can learn relaxation techniques, communication skills, and stress management. In addition to the educational program, they are supported through counseling emails before, during, and after their trip back to the Czech Republic.
Presentations, recordings of webinars, relaxation techniques, and contacts to counseling centers can be found at www.costabex.eu.
