The 2025 PsyHuman International School fosters a model of well-being promotion that encompasses psychological, physical, and socio-cultural determinants of health, while challenging the dominant narratives of the ‘ideal’ mind- and body-type. It is based on the idea that the approaches of the humanities can complement clinical psychology and bio-medical sciences to promote individual and community well-being, as well as to question mainstream conceptualisations.

The two-week programme will be structured around in-presence seminars, workshops, and outdoor activities, from Monday to Friday.

• Seminars will be delivered by both faculty members and external guests, to ensure a multidisciplinary approach, and a variety of topics and methodologies. Participants will be encouraged to share their own knowledge and competencies in the classroom.
• Narrative Medicine Workshop: Activities based on the signature practices of Narrative Medicine (i.e., close reading, attentive listening, self-reflection, writing to a prompt, storytelling and sharing), aimed at strengthening narrative competence (“the capacity to skillfully receive the accounts persons give of themselves – to recognize, absorb, interpret and be moved to action by the stories of others”, Rita Charon, 2017: 1).
• Outdoor activities: the programme includes one all-day excursion (to be defined); a half-day guided tour of Rovereto; and a workshop at the Modern and Contemporary Art Museum of Rovereto (MART).
