🌏 Global minds meet at UNM!
We’re thrilled to host the AASP PhD Summer School right here on our campus – a rare opportunity to welcome scholars and PhD students from across the world!

Over the past few days (07/07/25 ~ 09/07/25), brilliant minds in different psychology disciplines have gathered to explore cutting-edge research, cross-cultural insights and global collaborations. From theory to practice, from East to West, this week is a celebration of knowledge without borders.

We’re thrilled to share that Dr Risky will be exhibiting her artwork in Shades of Expression—a group exhibition that celebrates creativity as a form of emotional and personal expression.

🌿 Dr Risky’s pieces offer a deeply personal look into living with ADHD, turning art into a way to pause, process, emotions & find calm. While her academic research focuses on wellbeing in organisations, this collection invites us into her inner world—honest, imperfect and profoundly human. Besides, her participation reflects IWOW’s commitment to inclusive & holistic wellbeing, bridging lived experience with scholarly insight and showcasing the power of creative expression in mental health and neurodiversity.

Come visit and support this inspiring showcase of talent and resilience—open to all!
