This project is inspired by and extends heartfelt thanks to Jukka Sinnemäki
teacher and researcher, finalist of the GLOBAL TEACHER PRIZE (2018) and winner of the GLOBAL TEACHER AWARD (2019).
A passionate innovator in education at his school in Jyväskylä, Finland, Jukka has inspired educators around the world through his unwavering dedication and courage in placing students’ well-being at the heart of learning. His work continues to shape more compassionate, forward-thinking teaching practices globally.
Our framework responses to the need to increase understanding of what holistic well-being at schools means. The framework is designed to serve as a basis for developing pre- and in-service teacher training programmes as well as to support school leaders and educational policymakers in their efforts to promote holistic well-being at schools.


For those who recognize the failure of "myopic" education systems, and are willing to make efforts for a more holistic, more supportive, more well-being and resilience-focused education, our Learning Hub offers guidance to understand what teachers can do for their own and the children's well-being, bringing the existing well-being models close to teachers and encouraging innovation in this field.
