This is the first-ever study to define wellness policy and argue for why it is needed. Using GWI's wellness economy data, the report provides, for the first time, a quantitative analysis showing the positive relationship between wellness spending, happiness, and health outcomes across countries. It makes a compelling case for why wellness policy is essential not only for governments, but also for businesses. The report situates wellness policy in the context of several major global movements that have been working toward improved human health and well-being. It articulates how wellness policy can complement public health and health policy, as well as support the happiness/well-being policy efforts that are gathering steam in different parts of the world.
