KAUST Health offers a broad range of services that focus on a holistic approach to prevention, treatment, and follow-up. This focus is driven by a desire to support overall community well-being, and it’s why KAUST Health annually takes part in the celebration of World Health Day.
The theme of World Health Day 2018 was wellness, and all of the events surrounding the observance focused on how a preventative and holistic approach to wellbeing can help people lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. The KAUST Health staff organized a wide range of activities, workshops and live performances that aimed to address various aspects of wellness.
Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. The younger you start, the better. KAUST children took part in several activities training them on basics of wellness. The killing the germs game taught them about hygiene, they sorted healthy food from unhealthy food and painted ceramic apples in the studio, while others took part in movement workshops.
