The project Happy Habits (HaHa) focuses on improving the emotional and psychological well-being of individuals and groups, especially those affected from the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and/or other traumatic events. HaHa’s main aim is to raise awareness on the importance of taking care of one’s mental health, provide opportunities, and support individuals on how to heal, amplify well-being, and fortify their psychological resilience.

Co-funded by the European Commission through the Erasmus Plus program, the project has been running since January 2022 with the participation of five organizations from five different countries: Elan Interculturel (France), Associacio La Xixa Teatre (Spain), Inova Aspire B.V. (Netherlands), CESIE (Italy), and the Institute of Development CY (Cyprus).

To achieve the objectives the HaHa’s Consortium will deploy a collection of tools and techniques including humor, positive psychology, laughter, pleasure, and leisure time to help individuals cultivate gratitude, be able to cope when challenging situations arise whilst also increasing effectiveness in their professional and personal life.
