Health as Happiness

Staying healthy should be a joyful process! In this project titled “Health as Happiness”, we invite you to champion a healthy lifestyle in your school community. Your task is to create an adolescent health platform built by the students for the students to promote a healthier lifestyle at your school. The health platform should allow you to identify factors in your school environment that help students keep healthy and factors that hinder that process. Specifically, we would like you to focus on food and dietary habits and physical activity levels among the students. Do keep in mind that the platform should promote “health as happiness” thus make sure that your interventions spread kindness and joy, and not induce any stress for participants. You are encouraged to promote your local and traditional healthy foods while thinking about dietary habits. The platform can take the form of a digital app or a physical event in the school. If you choose to build an app, your final output can show the design, layout, and wireframes of the digital app. If you choose to design a physical event, you should highlight its theme, schedule, and the activities to be conducted during the event. Your final output should be submitted as a visual presentation or a written report or a video. The platform that you build in the form of an app/event should clearly serve the purpose of encouraging a healthier lifestyle in your school community.
