Wellbeing menu

This menu is designed as a starting point for you – it includes all the activities, initiatives, and supports you might want to bring to life in your local area.

How to use the menu

To use our wellbeing menu, just browse through our categories and pick the activities you want to implement. Then, organise all the activities you’ve chosen according to our Wellbeing Plan template.

Once your Wellbeing Plan is complete, contact wellbeing@monash.edu to organise a mini-expo wellbeing event (or to find out how you can organise your own workplace initiative).
