 Establishing Robust Foundations more promising futures via health and wellbeing education

Building solid foundations for kids is essential to their resilience and overall well-being in a world that is changing quickly. The key to long-term success and good health is a quality education, which is at the heart of this undertaking. Early health and well-being education is vital in elementary schools since it is known that students perform better in the classroom when they are well. UNESCO and UNICEF collaborated to establish the Building Strong Foundations briefs, which offer evidence-based recommendations to help primary school-aged children flourish by providing them with a foundational education for health and wellbeing. These briefs, which are based on in-depth research and discussions with top specialists from a range of disciplines and around the globe, provide education stakeholders with a road map for giving students the knowledge and abilities they need to meet their present and future health and well-being needs.
