The Greek mobility took place between 9th and 13th May 2022 and the topic was Social Health. Due to good
conditions of travelling and less restrictions in participating schools, this LTT activity was attended physically
by all partners.
The first day started with the welcome ceremony, headmaster's and Greek coordinator’s speeches, artistic
performances and a school tour. Students, in national teams, presented their local work - presentations on
Social Health, definitions, what happens if this health dimension is affected, what can be done and what the
results are if people are involved in activities which improve it. Divided in transnational groups, students
were involved in ice breaking activities, knowing each other better, improving their social health. A
workshop was organised, on the topic Role of Empathy on Social Health, where students learnt about the
importance of it in general wellness. The second part of the day was dedicated to the power point
presentations with the results of social health questionnaire applied in each school.
The second day started with a workshop on the topic of Social Health and Social Media. Participants debated
on the role social media has on people’s wellness and behaviour, about the positive parts of social media, its
drawbacks and how this affects our social life and social health, emotionally, physically and mentally. An
educational trip was organised for participants to improve their social health because travelling enhances
social behaviour, having lots of positive effects on our health when discovering new places, working in teams
outdoors, socialising with the others.
During the third day, participants visited the city hall of Nestos, where its representatives talked about the
activities they organise in order to improve citizens’ social behaviour. A visit to Xanthi was also organised and
participants were involved in group work activities which aimed to improve their collaboration, team work,
practical skills and creativity.
The fourth day a lecture was held with the topic was Social Health and the Internet use as means of
adaptability. The aim was to make participants conscious about the way the internet affects their social
health and all the drawbacks it has on their social life. Students were also given real life situations with the
negative effects of the internet and they came up with practical solutions. Participants visited the historical
site of Phillipi.
During the last day of activities, a management meeting was organised, an evaluation questionnaire was
applied and certificates were awarded. A tour of the Imaret and the house of Mohamet Ali was organised,
students getting in touch with the Greek culture and civilisation, spending time with the other participants,
improving their social skills, discussing, asking questions and receiving answers, practicing English.
Participation in this mobility offered participants the chance to improve their knowledge on Social Health
which is an important health dimension.
Whatever your age or stage of life is, don’t take relationships for granted. Value the friendships you have
and keep developing new ones. Your physical and mental health will thank you for it and your quality of life
will reflect it.
