Anxiety, stress, and sleep problems are part of everyday life for many people living with young-onset dementia and for the families and care professionals around them. Yet these psychosocial challenges are too often insufficiently addressed, and fragmented care systems make it even harder to provide consistent support across home and care settings.

In this webinar, Julie Vanderlinden presents insights from a co-creative research project exploring how to strengthen and connect expertise across residential care and the home environment. She will introduce the Connected Care framework and draw on the YOUNG-D programme; a structured psychosocial intervention translating evidence-informed techniques such as mindfulness, breathing exercises, and cognitive-behavioural strategies into everyday care practice.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵:

💡 Insight into the psychosocial needs of people with young-onset dementia and their caregivers
🛠️ Practical tools to reduce anxiety, stress, and sleep disturbances
🤝 Inspiration to strengthen collaboration across care settings
🌉 Concrete ways to act as a bridge between professional care and the home environment

Whether you are a healthcare professional, researcher, educator, or policymaker; this webinar will offer both practical tools and fresh perspectives on what truly connected, person-centred care can look like.

Did you know that around 1 in 5 students in higher education is balancing their studies with caring for a loved one?

Despite their resilience, these young carers often remain invisible within our institutions; facing hidden challenges that affect their wellbeing, academic progress, and future opportunities.

In this webinar, Julie Vanderlinden shines a spotlight on these students and explores what higher education can do to better support them. Expect insight into their diverse realities, concrete examples from practice, and practical tools to make your institution more flexible, inclusive, and supportive.

Whether you are an educator, student support professional, or policymaker; this one is for you.

𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗢𝗛𝗘𝗛𝗥𝗘'𝘀 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀𝗹𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 🌍

The bags from Porto are unpacked, but the energy is very much still going.

The COHEHRE Conference 2026 brought together health educators, researchers, clinicians, and international coordinators from across Europe for three days of interdisciplinary exchange and the community delivered. Bold conversations about the future of health education, shared research and expertise, new academic partnerships for future projects and student mobility taking shape, a deep dive into AI, and yes, a glass of port by the ocean. Not a bad combination.

Our latest newsletter captures the highlights and looks ahead at everything coming next.

𝗜𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:

🏆 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱: Ruben Vanbosseghem and colleagues from Artevelde University of Applied Sciences were recognised for their work on digital competences for self-employed healthcare professionals: a validated framework, a self-assessment tool, and a tailored learning programme addressing a gap that too often goes unnoticed.

🎤 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱: Ester Goutan-Roura and colleagues from the University of Vic, Spain, took the award for their research on introducing interprofessional education from day one of students' training before professional silos have a chance to form. The findings speak for themselves.

🎓 𝗗𝗶𝗦𝗜 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: This year's edition explored what it truly means to care for someone whose world is different from your own, with a focus on diversity, social inclusion, cultural competence, and intercultural communication.

🗓️ 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽: A webinar on young informal caregivers in higher education (11 June), InterSim (16–18 June), a webinar on stress & sleep problems in young onset dementia (23 June), a workshop in Vienna on emotional support for students returning from clinical placements in low-resource countries (7-9 October), and — save the date — 𝗖𝗢𝗛𝗘𝗛𝗥𝗘 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟳 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀 (21–23 April).

A student witnesses their first patient death. Abroad, far from home. 💔

When we send students to low-resource countries for clinical practice, we expose them to experiences that can be profoundly transformative and deeply traumatic. Death. Cultural shock. Ethical dilemmas. Impossible choices. We prepare them clinically. But do we prepare them emotionally?

And more importantly: are WE prepared to support them?

That's exactly why this workshop exists.

🎓 𝗘𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀

📅 7 – 8 – 9 October 2026
📍 Wien University of Applied Sciences, Vienna

In 3 intensive days, you'll build a real toolkit to support students BEFORE, DURING and AFTER their placement:

✅ How to prepare students emotionally before departure
✅ How to recognise and respond to trauma during the placement
✅ How to debrief and provide structured aftercare on return
✅ How to build your own resilience as a supervisor

👥 Led by two exceptional experts:
→ 𝗡𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗯𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗲: clinical psychologist, specialised in traumatology
→ 𝗛𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗲 𝗗𝗲 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲: midwife with 20+ years of international field experience

🎯 This workshop is for you if you are:
✔ An academic staff member or lecturer
✔ A clinical supervisor sending students abroad
✔ An international coordinator
✔ A coach, counsellor, or health educator

If you work with students who go out into the world: this is the training you didn't know you needed.

We are excited to introduce Jessica Oudenampsen, Professor at Utrecht University, where she teaches undergraduate courses, focusing on interdisciplinary collaboration and research within the Liberal Arts and Sciences programme. She is also involved in the Master Medical Humanities.

With a background in Medicine and a current focus on the Humanities, Jessica embodies the very interdisciplinarity she researches and teaches. Her work explores what students actually gain from interdisciplinary education, from integration skills and interdisciplinary identity to social-interactive competences, and how teachers can design learning environments that make those outcomes possible.

Jessica will open our conference with her keynote 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘌𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨: 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘖𝘶𝘵𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘴, 𝘌𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘚𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴, setting the tone for the days ahead.

She will then return to the Innov talk stage with 𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘈𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘯 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘌𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵, offering concrete considerations for teachers on how to foster a truly integrative learning climate when students from different disciplines bring different norms, values and assumptions to the table.
