Resumen
El aislamiento obligatorio por COVID-19 implicó muchos cambios. En el caso de los
estudiantes universitarios, las sesiones de clase se volvieron virtuales. Asimismo, las
empresas aplicaron el home office. De esta manera, se hizo casi imposible separar
el espacio personal y de ocio, al académico y profesional. Los fuertes efectos
generados por el COVID-19, especialmente por las medidas tomadas para
combatirlo, implicó que nos hiciéramos más conscientes de la necesidad de
cuidarnos los unos a los otros, y preocuparnos por nuestro bienestar integral: físico,
psicológico y social. A partir del diagnóstico realizado, identificamos que los
universitarios consideran sumamente importante tener un balance entre estas
esferas de la vida, pero la mayoría no lo alcanza. Asimismo, vemos que la gran
mayoría cae en prácticas de sobre esfuerzo, que son aquellas que buscan alcanzar
el éxito académico, pero, en el proceso, afectan su salud integral. Estas prácticas
además son justificadas y legitimadas por ellos mismos y por su entorno. Debido a
este contexto, es importante que los jóvenes desarrollen capacidades para poder
afrontar las distintas situaciones cotidianas en el ámbito académico y profesional. La
presente investigación aborda las etapas de diagnóstico, diseño y ejecución de las
actividades en fase piloto del proyecto “Bien+estar”. Se utilizó una estrategia de
diseño centrado en la persona, haciendo uso de entrevistas y grupos focales, así
como talleres participativos y encuentros para las actividades. Los resultados fueron
espacios de compartir experiencias y testimonios, que permitieron el aprendizaje y
co-creación de más actividades.
Mandatory isolation involved many changes. University students, for example, had to get adapted to virtual class sessions. Likewise, companies started to implement home- office. It became almost impossible to separate personal and academic or workspace. The strong effects COVID-19 had, especially due to the measures taken to combat it, meant that we became more aware of the need to take care of ourselves and each other, and pay attention to our integral well-being: physical, psychological, and social. From the information we recollected, we identified that university students consider it extremely important to maintain a balance between these aspects of their lives, but most of them do not reach it. Likewise, we found that a vast majority fall into over-effort practices, which we define as those that seek to achieve academic success but, in the process, damage some sphere of their overall health. These practices are also justified and legitimized but themselves and by their environment. Due to this context, it is important that young adults develop skills to be able to face different daily situations in academic and professional fields. The present investigation presents the stages of diagnosis, design, and execution of pilot activities of the project “bien+estar”. The project is based on a human-centered design strategy, making use of interviews and focus groups, as well as workshops and meetings for the activities. This resulted in common spaces in which our public felt comfortable to share their experiences and testimonios, which allowed learning and the co-creation of more activities and strategies.
