Well-being, health and quality of life are holistic terms with a range of contested definitions. In general, these concepts embrace both personal and community well-being, and refer to physical, social, economic and psychological dimensions, which are connected with individual and community learning, development and capacity-building, sense of place and cultural identity. The term well-being is used here to mean all aspects of the above.
