This also means understanding health and wellbeing in its many dimensions (social, psychological, cultural, structural and spiritual), as well as their historical and political context. For example, it means understanding how the burden of disease and social determinants of health are related to oppressed populations; how colonisation and neoliberalism affect health and wellbeing. Questions will be asked about the opportunity for all to live a 'good life'. Mental health is treated as a subset of health and wellbeing, and the online quiz focuses on this.
