Insights
Thinking that shapes the work.
The Foundation contributes to the public conversation on mental wellbeing in South Africa — with perspectives grounded in practice, research and the realities of the communities we serve.
Themes we write about
Wellbeing as capability
Why wellbeing is better understood as a set of learnable skills than as a state to be treated.
Preventative mental health
The case for building capability early, where the long-term return is greatest.
Workplace wellbeing
What genuinely shifts culture, and what only appears to.
Youth & schools
Adolescence as the highest-leverage moment for relational and emotional skill.
Cognitive & brain health
Stress, sleep, focus and the long arc of cognitive wellbeing.
Human flourishing
Connection, meaning and the conditions in which people do well.
Coming soon
Our first published pieces are in preparation.
Articles, talks and speaking engagements will be published here. If you would like to be notified, or to invite the Foundation to contribute to a panel, conference or publication, we would welcome the conversation.
