The outbreak of the global pandemic COVID -19 presents a challenging time for everyone around the world. Not only is this pandemic a serious medical concern, but it also brings mixed emotions and psycho-social stressors for all. There are emerging mental health concerns with specific focus on Children, Adolescents and Youth as they more vulnerable to heightened level of stress, anxiety and fearfulness, along with a range of other emotional and behavioral issues. COVID-19 has also brought new stressors on Teachers and Parents hampering their capacity to provide positive support to their wards. While it is important to focus on continuing education on the academic front, we must give equal importance to the mental health and well-being of the students.

Manodarpan, an initiative of the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, under the AatmaNirbhar Bharat Abhiyan, aims at mobilizing psycho-social support to help Children, Youth, Teachers and Parents country-wide in a comprehensive and multimodal manner during conditions like COVID-19 and after. For more information, please visit www.mhrd.gov.in/covid-19/

MyGov in collaboration with the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, hereby invites citizens to share ideas and inputs to combat the psycho-social stress on School & College Students, Teachers and Parents, caused due to COVID-19 pandemic. Selected comments may be featured on social media.

Last date of sending us your inputs is 21st August 2020

We can look into every childs aspirations which means what they like about. Teaching yoga to make them focus is also a good idea because no school teaches how to be focused and joyful.

I have been looking at the school kids online classes and I must say kids are getting stressed up watching small (tab) screens. If there is a possibility of airing the school syllabus and teachings in Big screen (Television), kids love to engage more and won't effect their eyes. Just an idea if this can be approved by central govt.

Providing projects to students regarding ecological and environmenta issues and their solutions. Teachers can help the young minds to teach them present degrading environmental circumstances and help them to come with innovative solutions. Parents can spend time with their wards teaching them basic necessary skills like stitching, plumbing, using basic tools like screwdrivers, changing tyres etc.

Well designed robot freinds will mitigate loneliness of children. It can teach children mannerisms etc. Using good AI algorithm and mass production will cease the prejudice that robots are costly compromised tools for ease of life.

Hello. I believe that students and parents can have a combine or separate counseling sessions with certified psychologists appointed by theschool or by our govt. so that they can discuss any problem they are facing at home or otherwise. Students should also be encouraged to participate in fun activities conducted by schools (like singing, charades etc.). News channels can also telecast positive news for an hour daily.

During this pandemic situation we should stay with our children/students. We should encourage or motivate them to spend a quality time with whatever resources they are have in there surrounding, or they can also do anything according to their wish but in a constructive way. We as their elders, be it the teachers or parents or guardians, should always give them a positive reinforcement.
