Discussion in Latvia

On February 4th, 2025, Flourish NGO in Latvia hosted an online discussion on mental wellbeing in remote work for youth, bringing together young professionals and stakeholders to discuss key challenges.

The discussion emphasized the need for structural changes alongside individual training to improve transversal skills.
