ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a program called Groups 4 Health (G4H), which aims to improve the well-being of students at the University of Helsinki. The focus is on helping students feel less lonely and more connected to others. Previous research in Australia has shown that G4H can effectively reduce feelings of loneliness and anxiety, and now the researchers want to see if it works just as well in Finland. They will compare G4H with other well-being programs offered at the university and see how these programs help students compared to those who do not participate in any well-being activities.

To be eligible for this trial, you need to be an adult (18 years or older) and a student at the University of Helsinki who can read or speak Finnish, Swedish, or English. Participants can expect to take part in various activities and fill out questionnaires before and after the program to help the researchers understand how effective the interventions are. This study will also look at the costs involved in the G4H program and explore any challenges related to making the program inclusive for all students. If you're interested in improving your well-being and connecting with others, this could be a great opportunity!
