印尼大学与Teduh联手改革学生心理健康

In a groundbreaking collaboration, mental health service provider Teduh and the University of Indonesia are teaming up to address the urgent mental health issues faced by students. This partnership highlights the shocking statistics of over 45,000 suicide attempts in Indonesia in 2022. As the CEO of Teduh, Christian Chonardo, along with his co-founders, gave up their prestigious careers to tackle this mental health crisis. The collaboration reflects their shared dedication to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health and improve the accessibility and quality of mental health services for students and scholars. The mission started at a specific college within the University of Indonesia and gradually expanded throughout the entire university, aiming to create a profound culture of mental health care and advocate for a world free of mental health biases. This collaboration signifies a significant breakthrough in improving student mental health for the University of Indonesia and Teduh. The shocking statistics of over 45,000 suicide attempts in Indonesia in 2022 prompted an exceptional response from Teduh's CEO, Christian Chonardo, who gave up his remarkable career at McKinsey to address this urgent mental health crisis together with co-founders Adrianus Matthew Sukuramsyah and Nicco Parikh. Their firm commitment seeks to address the mental health crisis plaguing the country. Both Teduh and the University of Indonesia share common core values and are firmly committed to eradicating the stigma surrounding mental health while improving the accessibility of mental health services for students and scholars. This vision extends to a world without biases related to mental health, advocating for a fair and inclusive world. This collaboration is not like any typical partnership; it is a mental health revolution. Starting from the Faculty of Public Administration and the Faculty of Economics and Business, the collaboration plans to gradually cover every corner of the University of Indonesia. Their clear and steadfast goal is to raise awareness, initiate candid conversations, and foster a strong culture of mental health care among students and scholars. Adrianus Matthew Sukuramsyah, one of the founders of Teduh, with a degree in Nanotechnology Engineering from the University of Waterloo in Canada, emphasized the marked difference in mental health awareness and resources during his study abroad. He believes that in Indonesia, the situation is like a ticking time bomb: "In my perspective, this is a problem waiting to explode. Although it significantly affects young people and families, this issue is still being overlooked in Indonesia. If not addressed, it could become an ongoing crisis in the country." Today, students at the University of Indonesia are about to experience a revolutionary mental health journey. The university offers them abundant resources and supports Teduh with students, facilities, and faculty. Thanks to this collaboration, students will have access to unprecedented professional mental health services. Teduh and the University of Indonesia jointly commit to delve deeper into the field of mental health, dismantle all barriers, and provide unparalleled mental health services for all students and scholars at the University of Indonesia. It's time to say goodbye to stigma and welcome a new era of mental health. A major change is underway!
