Programme details

What does health mean in the 21st century? As the life expectancy continues to grow in the developed world, it seems that there are new challenges to tackle: depression, anxiety and other mental health problems are increasing in the well-to-do economies, with new types of viruses coming to affect modern societies to boot. The global COVID pandemic has shown that even the richer part of the world might be faced with health challenges that we had thought would not pose a threat to our modern societies. Our modern way of life and the changing climate means that we have to overcome new challenges that affect our societies mentally and physically at the same time. Will the new medical innovations be able to help us overcome our physical and mental problems, or do we need to fundamentally change the way we live?

Health and Well-being Week

This programme examines the changing concept of health in the 21st century, focusing on the rise of mental health issues and new physical health threats in developed societies. It explores whether medical innovations can address these challenges or broader lifestyle changes are needed.
