Working with a counsellor helps the student solve a variety of issues that they confront in their daily life, as the sessions in counselling are provided by trained professionals. In the absence of a trained counsellor, a teacher who has received training and practice in the relevant area can play the role of a teacher counsellor. The teacher herself has to undergo a phase of transition from teacher to teacher counsellor. Due to this pandemic situation, life has changed a lot. Researches done in this area shows that the mental health of the adolescent group is largely affected by COVID 19. Even if the present mode of education is online, a teacher counsellor can help a student if she is equipped with the various strategies followed in counselling. The skills which are required in the field of counselling can be achieved by attending courses as well as training programs conducted by universities, government, non-governmental organisations, or institutions. This enables a teacher counsellor to get equipped with the basic skills required for counselling. Also, at the same time, she should be aware of the professional code of ethics in the process of counselling. When the teacher counsellor passes through the transition from teacher to teacher counsellor, she should possess the capacity to understand the student’s needs and also be capable of maintaining a good rapport and relationship with the student. In this way, both the teacher counsellor and the student can work together to achieve the goals for change.

The main objective of this paper is to highlight the essential role of professional accountants in enhancing public sector accountability in the present democratic era. The spate of public sector unaccountability scandals in the present democratic era in Nigeria evidently engenders the quest for proper accountability in the public sector. The paper begins with a conceptualization of accountability from the public sector perspective. It also attempts to cursorily highlight the nexus between public sector governance and accountability, before examining the issues currently undermining public sector accountability in Nigeria. It ends by pointing out the ways in which professional accountants can contribute to public sector accountability in Nigeria. In line with the many issues articulated in this paper, it is believed that a sense of value reorientation and strict adherence to professional code of ethics by professional accountants, among others, would reposition professional accountants to effectively contribute to public sector accountability in Nigeria.

One of the important professions in society is notary. This profession is a special profession because it is a public official in carrying out its duties which is bound by juridical norms and professional code of ethics. The notary code of ethics becomes a moral principle determined by the Indonesian Notary Association (INI) which is the basis for organizing or regulating the notary professional code of ethics in relation to many parties, which of course must be obeyed or obeyed by every member who is bound or binds himself/herself in the association (organization) that. The consequences as a member of this profession must be understood by a notary, because sourced from here, the dignity of the profession can be maintained. The position of the Notary which is urgent in human life makes the process of someone who wants to become an expert notary public important.

In the field of law, technical skills that ignore aspects relating to the responsibilities entrusted to him and his profession in general, as well as ethical values and measurements that must serve as guidelines in carrying out his profession.

The Impact

Abstract Population ageing presents both challenges and opportunities for societies around the world. Increasing statutory retirement age and limiting exits to early retirement are frequent policy responses to population ageing, but this is unlikely to have the desired impact if the complex relationships that link work, retirement and health remains unknown. In this context, we designed and are currently conducting the multi-partner project on pension reforms and spatial-temporal patterns in healthy ageing, funded by Fondazione Cariplo. The project involves a multi-disciplinary research team from University Vita-Salute San Raffaele, Bocconi University and the Unit of Epidemiology of the Regional Health Service of ASL TO3. In this first presentation we will first describe the project design, its general aim and specific objectives, then we will present a proposed conceptual framework on the association between retirement and health and its determinants. The framework is the first deliverable of the project and is the results of a comprehensive review of the available evidence and consultation with experts in the field. In particular we conducted a scoping review to retrieve, pool and critically appraise the relevant evidence on the impact of retirement and transition to retirement on physical and mental health and their determinants. We summarized the evidence collected in a conceptual framework that attempt to quantify how health and retirement are bi-directionally linked, how health is central to the timing of retirement, how labor-associated determinants condition employment cessation, how and retirement have varying effects on risk factors for physical and mental health and the role of confounding factors and mediators. Towards the end of the presentation we will outline an extensive stakeholder mapping carried out for the purposes of the project at the national and European level

Biophilic Design

Increasing nature and natural elements within a prison offers the potential to destress residents, improve mental health, cognitive functioning and learning; reduce recidivism and increase receptivity for behavioral change and restorative justice opportunities. Biophilic design is outlined as a set of principles, attributes and practices for cities to bring nature into urbanites’ daily life. The role of nature in restorative initiatives is traced back to the early work of innovative psychoanalyst, Eric Fromm, illustrating how his framework of human psychological pathways overlaps with biophilic design principles. Together, these approaches should provide new ways to improve the prison experience.

The Individual

Ethics is described as the set of behavioral patterns, conceptions, values and any other aspects that determine the actions of the individual and / or social group. In refer to psychology, these standards are regulated by the Psychologist's Professional Code of Ethics (CEPP), as a tool that governs the normative principles and behaviors expected of professionals in the field. Therefore, it is also stipulated about the various areas of activity of psychology, among them psychological assessment (PA) within the context of traffic, the role of the psychologist being indispensable to the process of health promotion, safety and accident prevention, although, in practice, act only with psychotechnical execution. Thus, the present study aims to explain ethical-professional articulations in the PA process in the context of traffic. Furthermore, the qualitative approach was used as a method, with a descriptive objective, whose resource is the narrative review of literature, covering the period from 2005 to 2020. However, it is possible to infer that such factors are closely related, making their articulation essential for the execution of an effective and committed social praxis.
