From Alice: WHF
As World Heart Federation has worked within the World Economic Forum "Working Towards Wellness" initiative, we have worked to drive home the point that workplace prevention of CVD has to go beyond HG to include the factory workers in China, Malaysia and India....a point about diversity and inclusion that we tried to get in the imagery of the World Heart Day clip.http://www.world-heart-
For World Heart Day this year we have collected examples of CVD prevention in different types of settings and will be presenting them in our online newsletter, Heartbeat. One of the themes that comes out strongly is the need to extend efforts to the "informal" work settings.
Since the workplace will also be the WHD theme next year, we hope this will stimulate people to send us information on different kinds of workplace interventions throughout the year, particularly those that are adapted to workplaces in low-income settings. So please keep us informed!
