In this episode, Fatema Mustansir Dawoodbhoy, a final year medical student at Imperial College London, chats to Dr Georgia Walker Churchman, a lecturer in Humanities at the University of East Anglia with a background in English Literature, about her SMaRteN-funded project titled ‘Helping Students to Connect, Create, and Collaborate in their Own Wellbeing’. Georgia led this project on student mental health during the height of Covid-19, looking into how student wellbeing can benefit from creative and collaborative experiences by producing short videos on the history of mental health using films and literary texts. Georgia dives into the various interesting findings her research has brought about and discusses her views on social media. The two explore ways in which social media seems to be running our day to day lives today and what actions we can take to curate our social media in a way where it empowers our mental health, not drain it.
