About This Webinar
As we live in tumultuous times around the world, how can personal tutors/academic advisers help students in continuing their education when many fear global issues which impact their lives? Universities should serve as places of reason and critical reflection; this webinar will discuss how personal tutors/academic advisers can provide academic, social and emotional support to students facing the challenges our countries are facing, As negative rhetoric, political turmoil and hatred are impacting student welfare, personal tutors/academic advisers are in a unique position to support students in positive ways. Important attention will be made to highlight legal issues associated with these challenges and emphasise how personal tutors/academic advisers can provide this support while remaining politically neutral, so as to not alienate those who seek their support.
