About RES:
The Robert Enke Stiftung supports measures and activities that serve to provide information, research and treatment of depression. In addition, there is the promotion of studies and projects working on the illness, the running of events on the subject and support of institutions that serve the above-mentioned targets. The aim of the foundation is to be able to offer support to as wide a range of people affected as possible.
In order to make it clearer of how the different elements of depression feel, a project was set up called ‘IMPRESSION DEPRESSION - A virtual reality experience from the Robert Enke Stiftung’. With the help of virtual reality goggles, people who are not affected are made aware of the illness through a 15-minute scenario that shows the different feelings and thoughts involved with depression.
The Robert Enke Stiftung (RES) website contains comprehensive information on the symptoms and the work of the foundation.
