Our Impact Our Impact

Since 2014, The Wellbeing Project has worked to catalyze a culture of inner wellbeing for all changemakers.

In the two years before the first Global Wellbeing Summit, which took place in Bilbao in 2022, we embarked on a broad collaborative effort to create ‘A Declaration of Wellbeing.’  Our global community of changemakers wanted to express the essence of this work through a public statement.

This inspiring document is the culmination of thousands of inputs received from around the world.  All of this input was then translated, through the creative talent of Ann Mortifee, into a shared vision for wellbeing. It serves as a profound collective declaration to our commitment to fostering wellbeing and highlights its transformative power in our pursuit of a better world.  Read the full text below.

Being able to understand and collectively help improve how this topic is being addressed in different countries beyond the dominant places of data collection gives me an enormous enthusiasm about having research better reflecting the diversity we need to better help teachers all over the world develop the skill of wellbeing.

Teachers are the heartbeat of communities across the globe yet their struggles to simply make it through the day are not often recognized. Being a part of the CTW community has represented, however, a beacon of hope.

Ecological Belonging

Join the Locally Rooted, Universally Human Movement

In collaboration with Georgetown University,

Ecological belonging is living in an ongoing interconnected relationship with ourselves, each other and our broader natural world. For most of human history we have done that through storytelling, ritual and practice. This ‘invisible architecture’ made meaning, focused attention, connected communities with themselves and their natural environment.

Throughout most of history, this is how we as humans have enabled and engaged in a respectful relationship with ourselves and all life on earth.
