iXNet Get-Together "Maintaining, building and regenerating resilience"

In view of digitalization and the resulting acceleration of social life, resilience is becoming an increasingly important key skill in everyday and professional life. This is particularly true for people with disabilities, who are increasingly exposed to numerous additional burdens, challenges and barriers in their lives and careers. Here, well-developed resilience can be of essential and pioneering importance: After all, it is often a question of reconciling disability with professional and social demands. This often also involves compensation and balancing one's own potential and possibilities with the existing social framework conditions. At the same time, resilience can have a significant influence on personal health and mental hygiene and can therefore be a decisive factor in maintaining the ability to work despite existing disabilities and prevent illnesses such as depression, burnout or other stress-related impairments. But how do I build resilience? What do I need to pay attention to in order to maintain my resilience and build up a certain resistance to stress? In order to go through life successfully with disabilities and to realize your own professional potential, it is often essential to focus on yourself and face your own disabilities with mindfulness and self-care.

With this iXNet Get-Together on the topic of "resilience", we would like to give interested parties and various stakeholders in the field of inclusive participation in the working life of academics with disabilities the opportunity to enter into a mutual exchange, network and empower each other.
