Project "alice gesund"

The health promotion of staff and students should be based on the experiences of its members, be reflected in very many areas of the university and be anchored there.  The health of all members at the university, especially in times of change, is of high importance and a valuable asset.  

The Alice Salomon University of Applied Sciences Berlin is a living environment for students, teaching staff and other employees. Promoting the health of all members of the university is a focal point in the mission statement of ASH Berlin.

Project structure from 2020

Due to the challenges of a growing organisation, the university management decided to expand the project and spread it over several shoulders. Active participation and funding was obtained from Techniker Krankenkasse and AOK Nordost.

The basis of "alice gesund" is a consistently participatory approach. This is structurally anchored in two steering committees with elected representatives of all member groups of ASH Berlin and is characterised by an empirically based approach. Among other things, a large-scale student survey is planned. In addition, the popular exercise programme and the team relay race "alice läuft" will be continued.

 The participation of the two health insurance companies enables the two steering committees. For the participation and stronger involvement of the students, the Techniker Krankenkasse promotes the establishment of a "Student Health Management" with the aim of a sustainable establishment. While the AOK Nordost will accompany the stabilisation and redesign of the "Company Health Management". The driving forces behind the project are the two steering committees, to which people from all member groups were elected by the Academic Senate at the beginning of 2020.
