Wellbeing Project

Our faculty is participating in a project in colaboration with University of Pécs HU, Medical University of Gdansk PL, and Medical Faculty Hradec Králové CZ.

The wellbeing program aimes to give everyone the opportunity to maintain physical and mental health. Faculties are largely influenced by the staff and students of the organisation. We want to give more opportunities to the citizens of the Visegrad region to shape this community together, giving space to community needs and ideas.
