Good health and well-being

The United Nations formulated this goal to ensure healthy lives and promote the well-being for all at all ages. The 9 targets concentrate on reducing child- and maternal mortality and ending epidemic diseases, but also on addictions, sexual health-care and family planning. For researchers in our faculty the access to health-care for everyone and the mental health and well-being, as mentioned in the targets are of the utmost importance.

Here are some examples of research done in our faculty that contribute to this Sustainable Development Goal.

• Can a language course promote healthy ageing?
• Apps for clinical practice
• First Aid instructions should be crystal clear (in Dutch)
• Histories of Healthy Ageing
• Health communication
