“Understanding social needs is next here, as we have long statistics on mental health problems.”

“Physical and mental well-being go hand in hand and that mental side may even be more important”

Social wellbeing is at least as important as other aspects of wellbeing. Together with Katriina Kivinen, a social psychologist, and Tommi Ostrovskij, a master’s student in social psychology, we have been creating a social welfare project. In Nyyti ry’s NyytiCast Podcast section # 40, (unfortunately only availble in Finnish) we discussed what social needs are and how it is possible to improve social well-being. Katriina has also written a few excellent blog posts on the subject: Considering social needs in everyday life – Considering Social needs in everyday life – Nyyti ry.
