Abstract

This qualitative research uses lived experience data to explore the mental health and professional experiences of faculty members in the education department of an English language university in Beirut, following the August 4, 2020 Beirut port blast. The data shows how our participants managed adverse mental health issues, while simultaneously re-engaging with teaching in the aftermath of the explosion. The study concludes that university emergency plans should aim to provide continuous professional development for faculty; utilize unambiguous language in cross-university communications; and offer personalized psychosocial support strategies for staff and students alike.
