Berkeley has adopted the Okanagan Charter, global Health Promoting Universities Framework(link is external) to guide our work. Below are some examples of initiatives and work that support this goal.
Campus Food and Beverages Choices Policy
This policy was launched in November 2018 to ensure that healthy food and beverage choices(link is external)(link is external) are available in foodservice operations on campus as well as with vendors and campus event planners.
Aim for the Healthy Department Certification
Earning a Healthy Department Certification demonstrates a commitment to fostering a culture of emotional, physical, social, spiritual, occupational and intellectual well-being and can help to create a more inclusive, productive and cohesive work environment.
Whether your department can meet one or all of the healthy workplace recommendations, discover ways your department can make the health and well-being of faculty and staff a priority and help to create a healthy workplace culture.
Help Yourself and Others Recalibrate their Wellness
Wellness is personal, multi-dimensional, and our needs are frequently changing. Recalibrate offers tools that will help you identify your own unique system of wellness or find resources for friends. Take a look at the site or share the page to help others recalibrate.
