What it's about:
Education systems are under pressure, from climate collapse to digital disruption to political instability. SAERA 2025 invites papers that explore how education can respond to this “polycrisis”, a tangle of overlapping challenges.

Why it matters for mental health champions:
Mental health and education are deeply connected. You can pitch work on:

  • Trauma-informed education

  • Emotional wellness in schools

  • Care-based pedagogy

  • Youth resilience in crisis

  • Cultural and community-based healing in education
