This one year review sets out the Report’s impact in government and other organisations’ policy development and strategic thinking, the work of the research community and in business.
The report gives an overview of the MCW Project, including its background, aim, process and its principal outputs. It then sets out the wide range of impact which it has had in the year since publication.
The MCW Project had one of the broadest scopes of any project undertaken by Foresight. It tackled several wide-ranging issues on mental capital and wellbeing and developed an interconnected life course approach to their analysis and presentation. This allowed Foresight to develop a framework for assessing and managing how an individual’s mental capital and wellbeing is enhanced or depleted throughout life. In carrying out the MCW project, Foresight brought together a wide range of disciplinary expertise, which included biological, social and economic sciences. This multidisciplinary approach was essential for the analysis of the diverse elements which comprised the overarching life course perspective.
