Join Alliant International University for a presentation focusing on a holistic perspective on health and well-being based on science and practice and look at research around the “nine variables of wellness” through an occupational lens.  For over two years, the world has been in a state of uncertainty, caused by a global pandemic, war, divisiveness and climate change – just to name a few factors. We are now at a critical juncture as we figure how to live and adjust to living with the uncertainty of what lies in the future. It is all the more important that we look at mental, physical and social well-being in a holistic way – including in the workplace. In order to cultivate a true culture of well-being, we must go beyond "drink water, exercise, sleep" interventions. For example, research indicates that you can spend an hour every day at the gym but if you then sit in front of the computer for another 6-8 hours, the exercise benefits are negated.

This talk will be a wake-up call, a call to action, and an antidote to despair! There is no charge for this online event but you must register in advance: Our speaker will discuss “the state of the planet’s health” from a scientific point of view. We will gain an understanding of where humans have and have not exceeded the capacity of the planet to support life, as illustrated in the book "Breaking Boundaries" which Owen co-authored with Johan Rockstrom. This book surveys the latest thinking in planetary science as published in the peer-reviewed Nature and Science magazines. We will also learn about Owen’s latest book, "Earth for All", which will be published on September 19th. A collaboration with five other authors, it uses a unique analysis to answer the question, “What is required for all of humanity to have a good life within planetary boundaries”? Owen will take us through the five extraordinary turnarounds needed to achieve this goal. There will be time for questions from the audience.
