Well-being is a positive state experienced by individuals and societies. Similar to health, it is a resource for daily life and is determined by social, economic and environmental conditions. Well-being encompasses quality of life and the ability of people and societies to contribute to the world with a sense of meaning and purpose.” -World Health Organisation

Facts about FHTS
We are social
See what’s happening ‘socially’
Foundation of Healthcare Technologies Society (FHTS), University of Memphis School of Public Health, and Zilla Parishad, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, under a joint collaborative initiative, are bringing the Model of Public Health Education to High Schools by using the Public Health in Action curriculum and establishing public health clubs across 50 high schools in Kolhapur, Maharashtra. This first-of-its-kind initiative is engaging more than 1,500 students as public health ambassadors across all 12 blocks of Kolhapur.
Building on the previous modules, the fifth curriculum session, focused on the role of data, information, and knowledge in public health, was delivered across 41 schools in Kolhapur. The session was conducted by Dr. Rashmi Nirhale, Public Health Outreach Specialist at FHTS, entirely in Marathi, helping students understand how data moves from raw numbers to meaningful information and, ultimately, actionable knowledge in public health decision-making.
The initiative furthers the goals of the National Education Policy 2020 and reflects how public health in action can support the Maharashtra state government`s `My Village Healthy Village` initiative, working to address adolescent health challenges such as unhealthy eating, environmental pollution, physical inactivity, emotional well-being, mental health, and social media and mobile addiction.
