Recent updates: Wellbeing Equity is Bigger Than FFI

A gathering of changemakers our country needs

In 2022, FFI was thrilled to bring together more than 100 leaders who are turning a fair shot at wellbeing into a reality at the inaugural Wellbeing Summit. Our charge? To learn from one another and design solutions for tackling some of our country’s largest challenges, together.

Designing for a fair shot at wellbeing

Summit participants put wellbeing design principles into practice as we imagined what a country where everyone has a fair shot at wellbeing could look like — and how we can get there.

Our focus areas and speakers

We ignited sparks of creativity and purpose around four focus areas:

  • Built Environment and Infrastructure
  • Media and Storytelling
  • Democracy and the Digital Age
  • Violence and Healing

Highlights

Namisha and Jay Patel are co-owners of Refuge, an inclusive and community-driven hotel in Charlotte, NC. During the Wellbeing Summit, Namisha and Jay shared about the history of hotel ownership and how they are infusing wellbeing and community into Refuge.

What’s next?
