Support Services to Enhance Students' Mental Health in Higher Education Institutions in Namibia
Abstract
This chapter presents an overview of the support services to enhance students' mental health in higher education institutions in Namibia. In light of the myriad difficulties encountered by students on a daily basis, it is imperative to establish frameworks that guarantee the provision of essential assistance to foster academic excellence. An analysis was conducted by reviewing various sources in order to obtain an understanding of the student affairs and support services offered at three leading universities in Namibia. These services encompass a range of areas, such as counselling services, peer support programs, initiatives promoting mental health awareness, mental health screening, accommodation and support services, and crisis intervention services. Institutional support mechanisms in terms of policy and practice and recommendations for future practice are examined.
