Mindful Campus Program
The Mindful Campus Program aims to co-design and implement mindfulness and compassion-based programming to support undergraduate student wellness at CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ. To increase the impact and relevance of these practices to students, we employed participatory research methods to forge collaborations among diverse experts. Together we collaboratively designed scalable, sustainable mindfulness- and compassion-based resources driven by the best available scientific evidence, contemplative practice wisdom, and the practical needs of our campus community during these challenging times.
Our work paves the way for sustained wellness on our CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ campus and highlights the power and promise of Youth Participatory Action Research and co-design methods to expand the relevance and scale of contemplative practices such as mindfulness and compassion for individual and collective impact.
