Description of the organisation

Studo is an educational technology company based in Maribor (SI), Graz (AT) and Cologne (DE), engaged in digitisation solutions for students and universities.

Good practice

The Mental Health Barometer is a longitudinal study surveying the development of students’ mental health. The study was conducted for the first time in Slovenia in 2022. In a recent survey conducted by the student app Studo, it was found that 82% of Slovenian students are currently experiencing stress related to their studies. This significant level of stress has a profound effect on their mental well-being, with every second student in Slovenia rates their own mental health as either not good or bad. All this is shown by the current Mental Health Barometer, for which more than 800 students in Slovenia were surveyed.

Target audience

University Students
