President’s Wellbeing Collaborative
The President’s Wellbeing Collaborative is an interdisciplinary group of students, staff, and faculty who have been brought together from across the entire UAB enterprise to develop our commitment to the aspirations and action items set forth in the Okanagan Charter.
Specifically, the Collaborative is working to:
— Educate the campus on the Okanagan Charter and its concepts/aspirations.
— Perform a campus-wide scan of current HPU/wellbeing initiatives.
— Create campus-wide Key Performance Areas (KPAs) to measure wellbeing embedded into campus culture, across the administration, operations, and academics and to lead health promotion and collaboration beyond the campus community.
