Students Launch ‘Health Equals Happiness’ Initiative for Young Social Innovators

6 February 2013 • Davitt College Castlebar

As part of the Young Social Innovators (YSI) programme, students at Davitt College launched a major school-wide initiative to raise awareness about the vital importance of leading a healthy and balanced life.

Operating under the core belief that “health equals happiness”—and recognizing that a healthy mind is every bit as important as a healthy body—the student team developed fun, positive, and accessible ways to help their peers and school families adopt long-term healthy lifestyle choices.

The YSI group organised a vibrant series of active events across the school, introduced nutritious alternatives in the dining areas, and created brand-new facilities to foster mindfulness and student welfare on campus.
