3rd Young Carers Conference in Lugano

Our colleagues from the Careum School of Health organise the 3rd Young Carers Conference. This conference will take place in Lugano on the 16th of May.

At the conference, the Young Carers research team of the Careum School of Health will present the results of the latest national and international studies on the topic of “young carers” – children, adolescents and young adults who care for a loved one.

The participants will learn how other countries support young carers and what assistance they provide. International and renowned researchers will present their research results and experiences in a direct comparison of countries. The panel discussion “Well-being and needs of young carers in school and education” in the afternoon will be attended by young carers and experts from various organisations.
