What is the global awareness calendar?

In the course of an academic/school year, as part of our effort, Human-Service tries to raise awareness to various topics relating to psychological growth and wellness. Each week we bring into focus an issue based on UNESCO’s and other advocacy calendars dedicated to recognize specific important matters. Every week therefore we hand out brochures and other resources to inform and educate students on these topics. See below a mental health weekly calendar Hunan-Service uses as an integrated outreach effort in support of student counseling service.
