UBC Wellbeing is a collaborative effort to make the university a better place to live, work, learn, and play through a systems-wide, settings-based approach to health and wellbeing.


Guided by the Okanagan Charter and UBC’s Wellbeing Strategic Framework, we are committed to creating campus environments that support health and wellbeing for people, places, and the planet – locally and globally.

We aspire to support our people to achieve their full potential in teaching, learning, working, and research by making wellbeing a priority that guides our daily interactions, decisions, policy planning, and program development.
