THE BIGGER PICTURE
It is important that we engage with ‘the bigger picture’, our society, the environment, the culture and systems that influence our lives. At a micro level there is so much we can do to improve our well-being, but on a macro level is enough being done to help support us all in our quest for wellness? Personal responsibility in how our world is formed is vital, but we also want to explore systems change and what role our government, policy, media and marketing are having on our health. We want to look at how wellness can be effectively introduced across our education systems and how workplaces can become healthier and happier places of work. We need to ask questions that haven’t been asked and to seek answers that haven’t been found, so we can all gain a greater understanding of how we can contribute as individuals and as collectives to a society that promotes and encourages well-being on all levels.
