About this event
Kia ora koutou katoa,
At Te Tai Ōhanga – The Treasury, we are developing the first Wellbeing Report - Te Tai Waiora that will be published in November 2022.
Join us for our next Wellbeing Report seminar
The What Works Centre for Wellbeing is a collaborating Centre working out what organisations in all sectors - public, private, and civil society - can do to improve wellbeing. In this talk, Nancy will cover a range of examples of how wellbeing approaches, indicators and policies are being used.
Examples will come from:
- across the policymaking process from policy objective setting, appraisal, and evaluation
- local area place centred wellbeing strategies and workplace wellbeing action plans
- sector and organisational approaches, across a wide range of policy areas -education, labour market, environment, health, culture, public mental health, social capital and digital, and
- a wide range of disciplines from economics, statistics, research, MEL, policy, public & occupational health, planning, commissioning & funding, delivery, and service design.
