The importance of the mental health of university students. | Lilla Valentina Bálint | TEDxELTE

Valentina Lilla Bálint is an English Studies student at ELTE Faculty of Humanities.
AHA! moments. Guiding, Observing. Learning from others.
These values were important milestones in Lilla's personal development, as she upgraded from the school's drama group to experimental theatre, working with people from various, often underprivileged backgrounds.

She found her place at playback theatre, a form of experimental theatre derived from ancient community gatherings and the newest fields of modern psychology aiming to make people reflect on their feelings and become clear on what they signify.

Realizing how much the lessons and methods learned from playback help her navigate in a competitive academic environment, she shares her story to spark discussion about the importance of the mental health of university students.

Realizing how much lessons and methods you learn from playback help her navigate in a competitive academic environment, she would love to share her story to spark a discussion on the importance of mental health for university students. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
