Our Wellbeing Matters Our Wellbeing Matters

Let’s Get The Conversation Started

Our most prominent global issues — climate change, wars, pandemic, inflation — take both a physical and mental toll on us. In challenging times, it’s essential to prioritize our own wellbeing in order to build a better world.

Over the past year, The Wellbeing Project partnered with Skoll Foundation and TEDx to surface and spotlight new ideas from TEDxSãoPaulo, TEDxAtlanta, and the global TEDx community that explore how we can nurture wellbeing in our communities and in ourselves.
